[dtrace-discuss] string comparison using regexp

[Jon Haslam]

Hi Pavel,

DTrace has a few string manipulation subroutines and strstr()
will probably do what you want here. It's not too pretty
but I think this does it:

fbt::fop_*:entry
/probefunc != "fop_open" && ((vnode_t *)arg0)->v_path != 0 &&
    strstr(stringof(((vnode_t *)arg0)->v_path), "foo") != NULL/
{
        printf("%s\n", stringof(((vnode_t *)arg0)->v_path));
}

Let me know if it isn't what you had in mind.

Jon.
