πŸ’– probe::socket.aio_write πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to the PROBE::SOCKET.AIO_(3stap) page β€” that's the Socket Tapset corner of the SystemTap manual, and we're about to get into it 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

probe::socket.aio_write β€” the probe that catches a message being sent via sock_aio_write, no cap πŸ¦‹


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

probe socket.aio_write {}

that's it. that's the whole synopsis. she's short, she's iconic, she's lowkey doing the most with the least πŸ’…


✨ VALUES ✨

every probe hands you a lil goodie bag of values, and here's everything inside yours πŸŽ€

  • family β€” the protocol family value πŸ‘‘
  • size β€” how big the message is, in bytes πŸ“
  • flags β€” the socket flags value 🚩
  • protocol β€” the protocol value 🧚
  • state β€” the socket state value 🌸
  • name β€” the name of this probe (yes, the probe knows its own name, main character energy fr) ⭐
  • type β€” the socket type value 🌈

✨ CONTEXT ✨

who's in the hot seat? the message sender. that's your context, bestie πŸ’œ


✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

this probe fires at the beginning of sending a message on a socket, and it gets there via the sock_aio_write function. so like, right when the send is kicking off β€” not after, not mid-way, at the beginning. the way that timing matters 😭✨
