Hi,

If the binary being traced has static symbols in its symbol table, DTrace s=
hould
be able to trace the function. Can you describe the example where you found=
 this
difference in FreeBSD and OSX?

 Hi,
 I have been experimenting with DTrace on 9.2 and I was
 wondering if there was some way to trace static symbols in
 binaries?

 I did some testing on OSX and apparently Solaris can also do
 it but not [yet?] FreeBSD.

 Unfortunately I haven't had much luck finding the code which
 does it in Solaris (so I can't check if it's in a later
 version of FreeBSD).

 Thanks.
