PROBE::NFS.AOP.S(3stap)

✨ NAME ✨

probe::nfs.aop.set_page_dirty β€” the NFS client marking a page as dirty πŸ’…

okay so real quick, this is a SystemTap tapset probe from the Network File Storage Tapsets crew, and it's basically the little notification you get when the NFS client decides a page is dirty. iconic behavior, honestly.


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

probe nfs.aop.set_page_dirty {}

that's it. no args, no nothing. she takes up zero space and causes zero problems. queen. πŸ‘‘


🌸 VALUES 🌸

the goodies you can peek at inside this probe:

  • __page β€” the address of the page 🫢 like, where the page actually lives in memory
  • page_flag β€” the page flags 🌈 the little status badges telling you what's going on with it

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

so bestie, here's the tea β˜•

This probe attaches to folio_mark_dirty (or legacy page-dirty helpers).

and here's the part you need to know, no cap: Thus, this probe is going to fire on many other file systems in addition to the NFS client. πŸ‘€

so like… don't come for her thinking she's NFS-exclusive. she's out here for everybody. main character energy across the whole filesystem friend group. if you're only here for NFS, vibe check accordingly. 😭

mwah πŸ’‹ this was pulled straight from the SystemTap Tapset Reference (version situation: Ver), dated September 2026 β€” so yeah, she's fresh, she's documented, and she's giving exactly what she needs to give. periodt. βœ¨πŸ¦‹πŸ’œ
