NAME

       dtrace - DTrace dynamic tracing facility

DESCRIPTION

       The  dtrace  driver  provides  the  dynamic  instrumentation and tracing facilities for the DTrace software, as well as the built-in dtrace
       provider. The dtrace driver is not a public interface and you access the instrumentation offered by this provider through DTrace tools such
       as  dtrace(1M).	 Refer to the Solaris Dynamic Tracing Guide for a description of the public documented interfaces available for the DTrace
       facility and dtrace provider probes.
