[kde-discuss] D-Bus DTrace provider?

[Alan Coopersmith]

An idea from a hallway discussion after last week's
KDE-on-OpenSolaris presentation:

   Has anyone given consideration to adding a dtrace provider to
   the D-Bus IPC mechanism that GNOME, KDE, and HAL use?

Given the increasing number of hardware state updates being
communicated over the bus (it's already used for removable
media mounts/unmounts and laptop battery state, and the
current power management cases in the ARC add more uses,
as will Xorg server 1.4 when we move to it), and the increasing
use in both the GNOME & KDE desktops, it would seem like a useful
source of events for triggering dtrace probes.
