Hi Bob, The pid provider can trace arbitrary instructions in any function that appears in the symbol table. The only exception is for functions that contain jump tables -- for those we only expose entry and return probes. Can you send the dtrace(1M) invocation you're using and the disassembly of the function you're trying to trace?
