PROBE::NFSD.CREATE(3stap)

💖 NAME 💖

probe::nfsd.create — bestie, this is the moment an NFS server is out here creating a file for a client. And by "file" we mean regular, dir, device, fifo, the whole squad ✨

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

probe nfsd.create {}

That's it. That's the whole vibe check. No args, no drama, just the probe point sitting there like 👑

---

🎀 VALUES 🎀

okay so when this probe fires, here's everything it hands you — read them like a lil care package 🫶

• filelen — the length of the file name. just the length, not the name itself, don't get it twisted 💅
• filename — the file name. yes. the actual name. iconic of it 🦋
• iap_mode — the file access mode 🌈
• iap_valid — the attribute flags ⭐
• fh — the file handle. and heads up: the first part of it is the length of the file handle, so don't come for me when you read it and it's giving "number first" 😭
• type — the file type (regular, dir, device, fifo, ...) 👑
• client_ip — the ip address of the client. like, who's asking 💜

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So here's the tea: sometimes nfsd will call nfsd_create_v3 instead of this probe point. so like, don't be shocked if this one ghosts you on occasion and the v3 one shows up to the party instead 🙈
