PROBE::SUNRPC.CLNT(3stap)

💫 PROBE::SUNRPC.CLNT — the Networking Tapset one (3stap) 💫

okay so bestie, we're in the Networking Tapset section of the SystemTap probe docs, and this page is all about one very specific lil probe. let's get into it 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

probe::sunrpc.clnt.clone_client — it clones an RPC client structure. yes, that's literally the whole job. copy-paste but for RPC clients 💅

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

probe sunrpc.clnt.clone_client {}

no arguments, no params, no drama. it just fires when an RPC client structure gets cloned. periodt.

---

🌸 VALUES 🌸

when this probe goes off, it hands you a whole lil gift bag of context variables. here's the full haul, no skips, no cuts 🧚

• progname — the RPC program name (the cute human-readable one)
• prog — the RPC program number (the numeric one, its government name if you will)
• servername — the name of the server machine
• port — the port number
• authflavor — the authentication flavor (which flavor of auth we're dealing with, iykyk)
• prot — the IP protocol number
• vers — the RPC program version number

that's seven values, all of them, exactly as listed. no gatekeeping here 💖

lowkey obsessed with how tidy this probe is. no options, no return values, no exit statuses, just vibes and seven values. iconic behavior honestly 👑
