+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+DTrace is a comprehensive dynamic tracing framework ported from Solaris.
+DTrace provides a powerful infrastructure that permits administrators,
+developers, and service personnel to concisely answer arbitrary questions about
+the behavior of the operating system and user programs.
+.Pp
+The
+.Nm
+command provides a generic interface to the essential services provided by the
+DTrace facility, including:
+.Bl -bullet -offset indent
+.It
+Options that list the set of probes and providers currently published by DTrace
+.It
+Options that enable probes directly using any of the probe description
+specifiers (provider, module, function, name)
+.It
+Options that run the D compiler and compile one or more D program files or
+programs written directly on the command line
+.It
+Options that generate anonymous tracing programs
+.It
+Options that generate program stability reports
+.It
+Options that modify DTrace tracing and buffering behavior and enable
+additional D compiler features
+.El
+.Pp
+You can use
+.Nm
+to create D scripts by using it in a shebang declaration to create an
+interpreter file.
+You can also use
+.Nm
+to attempt to compile D programs and determine their properties without
+actually enabling traces using the
+.Fl e
+option.
+.Sh OPTIONS
+The arguments accepted by the
+.Fl P ,
+.Fl m ,
+.Fl f ,
+.Fl n ,
+and
+.Fl i
+options can include an optional D language
+.Ar predicate
+enclosed in slashes and an optional D language
+.Ar action
+statement list enclosed in braces.
+D program code specified on the command line must be appropriately quoted to
+avoid interpretation of meta-characters by the shell.
+.Pp
+The following options are supported:
+.Bl -tag -width indent
+.It Fl 32 | Fl 64
+The D compiler produces programs using the native data model of the operating
+system kernel.
+If the
+.Fl 32
+option is specified,
+.Nm
+forces the D compiler to compile a D program using the 32-bit data model.
+If the
+.Fl 64
+option is specified,
+.Nm
+forces the D compiler to compile a D program using the 64-bit data model.
+These options are typically not required as
+.Nm
+selects the native data model as the default.
+The data model affects the sizes of integer types and other language properties.
+D programs compiled for either data model can be executed on both 32-bit and
+64-bit kernels.
+The
+.Fl 32
+and
+.Fl 64
+options also determine the
+.Xr elf 5
+file format (ELF32 or ELF64) produced by the
+.Fl G
+option.
+.It Fl a
+Claim anonymous tracing state and display the traced data.
+You can combine the
+.Fl a
+option with the
+.Fl e
+option to force
+.Nm
+to exit immediately after consuming the anonymous tracing state rather than
+continuing to wait for new data.
+.It Fl A
+Generate directives for anonymous tracing and write them to
+.Pa /boot/dtrace.dof .
+This option constructs a set of dtrace configuration file directives to enable
+the specified probes for anonymous tracing and then exits.
+By default,
+.Nm
+attempts to store the directives to the file
+.Pa /boot/dtrace.dof .
+This behavior can be modified using the
+.Fl o
+option to specify an alternate output file.
+.It Fl b Ar bufsz
+Set the principal trace buffer size to
+.Ar bufsz .
+The trace buffer size can include any of the size suffixes k, m, g, or t.
+If the buffer space cannot be allocated,
+.Nm dtrace
+attempts to reduce the buffer size or exit depending on the setting of the
+bufresize property.
+.It Fl c Ar cmd
+Run the specified command
+.Ar cmd
+and exit upon its completion.
+If more than one
+.Fl c
+option is present on the command line,
+.Nm dtrace
+exits when all commands have exited, reporting the exit status for each child
+process as it terminates.
+The process ID of the first command is made available to any D programs
+specified on the command line or using the
+.Fl s
+option through the
+.Li $target
+macro variable.
+.It Fl C
+Run the C preprocessor
+.Xr cpp 1
+over D programs before compiling them.
+You can pass options to the C preprocessor using the
+.Fl D ,
+.Fl U ,
+.Fl I ,
+and
+.Fl H
+options.
+You can select the degree of C standard conformance if you use the
+.Fl X
+option.
+For a description of the set of tokens defined by the D compiler when invoking
+the C preprocessor, see
+.Fl X .
+.It Fl D Ar name Op Ns = Ns value
+Define
+.Ar name
+when invoking
+.Xr cpp 1
+(enabled using the
+.Fl C
+option).
+If you specify an additional
+.Ar value ,
+the name is assigned the corresponding value.
+This option passes the
+.Fl D
+option to each
+.Xr cpp 1
+invocation.
+.It Fl e
+Exit after compiling any requests and consuming anonymous tracing state
+.Fl ( a
+option) but prior to enabling any probes.
+You can combine this option with the
+.Fl a
+option to print anonymous tracing data and exit.
+You can also combine this option with D compiler options.
+This combination verifies that the programs compile without actually executing
+them and enabling the corresponding instrumentation.
+.It Fl f Oo Oo Ar provider : Oc Ar module : Oc Ar function Oo Oo Ar predicate \
+ Oc Ar action Oc
+Specify function name to trace or list
+.Fl ( l
+option).
+The corresponding argument can include any of the probe description forms
+.Ar provider:module:function ,
+.Ar module:function ,
+or
+.Ar function .
+Unspecified probe description fields are left blank and match any probes
+regardless of the values in those fields.
+If no qualifiers other than
+.Ar function
+are specified in the description, all probes with the corresponding
+.Ar function
+are matched.
+The
+.Fl f
+argument can be suffixed with an optional D probe clause.
+You can specify more than one
+.Fl f
+option on the command line at a time.
+.It Fl F
+Coalesce trace output by identifying function entry and return.
+Function entry probe reports are indented and their output is prefixed with
+.Ql -> .
+Function return probe reports are unindented and their output is prefixed with
+.Ql <- .
+System call entry probe reports are indented and their output is prefixed with
+.Ql => .
+System call return probe reports are unindented and their output is prefixed
+with
+.Ql <= .
+.It Fl G
+Generate an ELF file containing an embedded DTrace program.
+The DTrace probes specified in the program are saved inside of a relocatable ELF
+object which can be linked into another program.
+If the
+.Fl o
+option is present, the ELF file is saved using the pathname specified as the
+argument for this operand.
+If the
+.Fl o
+option is not present and the DTrace program is contained with a file whose name
+is
+.Ar filename.d ,
+then the ELF file is saved using the name
+.Ar filename.o .
+Otherwise the ELF file is saved using the name d.out.
+.It Fl h
+Generate a header file containing macros that correspond to probes in the
+specified provider definitions.
+This option should be used to generate a header file that is included by other
+source files for later use with the
+.Fl G
+option.
+If the
+.Fl o
+option is present, the header file is saved using the pathname specified as the
+argument for that option.
+If the
+.Fl o
+option is not present and the DTrace program is contained within a file whose
+name is
+.Ar filename.d ,
+then the header file is saved using the name
+.Ar filename.h .
+.It Fl H
+Print the pathnames of included files when invoking
+.Xr cpp 1
+(enabled using the
+.Fl C
+option).
+This option passes the
+.Fl H
+option to each
+.Xr cpp 1
+invocation, causing it to display the list of pathnames, one for each line, to
+standard error.
+.It Fl i Ar probe-id Op Oo Ar predicate Oc Ar action
+Specify probe identifier
+.Ar ( probe-id )
+to trace or list
+.Ar ( l
