The easiest instructions + are currently at, + + http://blogs.sun.com/shanti/entry/dtrace_support_for_php + + which were written for Solaris and the coolstack distribution of PHP. + The steps are roughly, + + 1. Download the extension library from the URL above + 2. Copy the library to your php/extensions/* directory + 3. Edit your php.ini and add, + extension="dtrace.so" + + The website with the PHP DTrace provider source is, + + http://pecl.php.net/package/DTrace + + Here you can fetch the source to build the library yourself, especially + if Solaris binaries from the previous URL aren't going to work for you. + + Since the DTrace PHP provider may be developed further, there is a chance + that it has changed slightly by the time you are reading this, causing + these scripts to either break or behave oddly. Firstly, check for newer + versions of the DTraceToolkit; if it hasn't been updated and you need + to use these scripts immediately, then updating them shouldn't take + too long. The following was the state of the provider when these scripts + were written - check for changes and update the scripts accordingly, + + provider php { + probe function-entry(function, file, lineno) + probe function-return(function, file, lineno) + }; + |
