💫 PROBE::SUNRPC.CLNT 💫

okay so bestie, welcome to the Networking Tapset section of the SystemTap Tapset Reference — this one's a 3stap page, and it's all about a single lil probe. she's cute, she's specific, and she's about to tell you everything you need to know about RPC clients being born. 🦋

🌸 NAME 🌸

probe::sunrpc.clnt.create_client — Create an RPC client

like. that's her whole job. she creates an RPC client. main character energy, honestly. 👑

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

probe sunrpc.clnt.create_client {}

no arguments, no parameters, nothing extra. she takes zero input and just shows up when a client gets created. minimalist queen. 💅

---

🎀 VALUES 🎀

these are the values you can read from inside the probe — the little gossip she hands you when she fires. every single one matters, so let's go through them one by one, no skipping, fr fr.

• authflavor — the authentication flavor 🍓 (iykyk, it's about how you're proving who you are)
• prot — the IP protocol number 🌈
• vers — the RPC program version number ⭐
• progname — the RPC program name 💖
• prog — the RPC program number 🔥
• servername — the server machine name 👑
• port — the port number 🎀

that's the whole squad — authflavor, prot, vers, progname, prog, servername, port. seven values, all iconic, all yours to grab the moment the probe triggers. periodt. 💅
