tapset::socket - systemtap socket probe points
DESCRIPTION
This family of probe points is used to probe socket activities. It contains the following probe points:
socket.send
Fires at the conclusion of sending a message on a socket. This probe alias includes the socket.sendmsg.return,
socket.aio_write.return and socket.writev.return probes (these probes should catch all messages sent on sockets). The arguments
supplied at the beginning of the send are cached and made available in this probe.
Context:
The message sender.
Arguments:
name
Name of this probe.
size
Size of message sent (in bytes) or error code if success == 0
protocol
Protocol used on the socket. Use sock_prot_num2str(protocol)
to convert to a string.
Common values include:
0 - IP (Internet Protocol, local interprocess communications)
6 - TCP (Transmission Control Protocol)
17 - UDP (User Datagram Protocol)
132 - SCTP (Stream Control Transmission Protocol)
Refer to /etc/protocols for a complete list of possible values.
family
Protocol family of the socket (from include/linux/socket.h).
Use sock_fam_num2str(family) to convert to a string.

31 - BLUETOOTH (Bluetooth sockets)
state
State of the socket. Use sock_state_num2str(state) to convert
to a string.
Possible values are:
0 - FREE (not allocated)
1 - UNCONNECTED (unconnected to any socket)
2 - CONNECTING (in the process of connecting)
3 - CONNECTED (connected to a socket)
4 - DISCONNECTING (in the process of disconnecting)
flags
Socket flags. Use sock_flags_num2str(flags) to convert
to a string.
Possible values are:
0 - ASYNC_NOSPACE
1 - ASYNC_WAITDATA
2 - NOSPACE
3 - PASSCRED
4 - PASSSEC
type
Socket type. Use sock_type_num2str(type) to convert
to a string.
