This adds static markers for dtrace, which are also usable by systemtap. Additionally it adds a tapset for systemtap that makes it easier to use the static markers. These are enabled by default. This initial set of probes is rather limited: * allocation and free using g_malloc & co * allocation and free using g_slice * gquark name tracking (useful for converting quarks to strings in probes) Notes on naming: Its traditional with dtrace to use probe names with dashes as delimiter (slice-alloc). Since dashes are not usable in identifiers the C code uses double underscores (slice__alloc) which is converted to dashes in the UI. We follow this for the shared lowlevel probe names. Additionally dtrace supports putting a "provider" part in the probe names which is essentially a namespacing thing. On systemtap this field is currently ignored (but may be implemented in the future), but this is not really a problem since in systemtap the probes are specified by combining the solib file and the marker name, so there can't really be name conflicts. For the systemtap tapset highlevel probes we instead use names that are systemtapish with single dashes as separators. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=606044 |

This package contains the reference documentation for GLib. For more information about Glib, see: http://www.gtk.org For information about contributing to the GLib/GTK+ reference documentation project, see: http://www.gtk.org/rdp/ The GLib reference documentation is freely redistributable, see the file COPYING for details. REQUIREMENTS ============ To build the documentation, you must have the gtk-doc package installed. To rebuild the template files, you must have the current version of the GLib header files installed. BUILD ===== First, run configure to generate the makefiles for this module. There is one option specific to this package --with-html-dir=DIR top of installed HTML documentation tree The Makefiles for this module define three targets: templates: Scan the headers and merge the results with the current template files sgml: Generate SGML files using the DocBook DTD from the template files html: Generate HTML from the SGML files. To build the documentation, do: make sgml make html You should only run the 'make templates' step if you need to regenerate the templates for a more recent version of the GLib sources. INSTALLATION ============ make install
