14 tant to know and may be required to reference.

17 Systemtap data directory for cached systemtap files, unless
18 overridden by the SYSTEMTAP_TAPSET environment variable or the
19 XDG_DATA_DIRS environment variable. This directory stores a set
20 of builtin functions and probe point aliases are provided by the
21 scripts installed here. These are described in the stap‐
22 funcs(3stap) and stapprobes(3stap) manual pages.
23
24 Systemtap Runtime Path: /usr/share/systemtap/runtime/
25 The runtime sources, unless overridden by the SYSTEMTAP_RUNTIME
26 environment variable.
27

29 The auxiliary program supervising module loading, interaction,
30 and unloading.
31
32 Systemtap Stapio Path: /usr/libexec/systemtap/stapio/
33 The Systemtap module input and output handler.
34
35 sdt.h Path: /usr/include/include/sys/std.h

54 base directory of which various subdirectories will be searched
55 for finding modules.
