TAPSET::GURU-SIGNAL(3stap)

✨ TAPSET::GURU-SIGNAL ✨ (that's section 3stap, bestie)

okay so welcome to tapset::guru-signal β€” the systemtap guru-signal tapset πŸ’… yes it's a whole tapset and yes it's giving main character energy.


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so the functions in the guru-signal tapset let a probe handler queue up user-space signals. that's the whole vibe 🫢

⚠️ but listen β€” these operations are only safe from some kinds of probe points, which is exactly why they're guru-mode only. no cap. don't be out here raising signals from a probe point that isn't down for it 😭
  • raise β€” raise a signal in the current thread πŸ“£ like literally, right now, in the thread you're already in, that one.

see function::raise(3stap) for details. πŸ‘‘ it's the whole lore, go read it.
