[DTrace-devel] [PATCH v2 0/4] DTrace TCP provider

This series is a first draft of TCP provider support, where the
probes are implemented via underlying fbt and sdt probes.

Due to the use of the sock/inet_sock_set_state tracepoint, intended
for ~5.15 kernels and later.  Tried replacing this with

fbt::tcp_set_state:entry

but this misses a few state transitions, so stuck with using
the tracepoint.

All tests under test/unittest/tcp pass unmodified on an upstream
(6.15) kernel and 5.15 UEK7U3 kernel.

It implements all documented TCP provider probes:

accept-established, accept-refused, connnect-request,
connect-established, connect-refused, receive, send,
state-change

Changes since RFC:

- fixed issues with test failures on UEK7 due to missing
  SYN_RCV state change
- moved get_member() to dt_cg.c (patch 1)

Alan Maguire (4):
  dtrace: move get_member() to dt_cg.c
  dt_impl: bump number of TSLOTS to 8
  dtrace: add tcp provider
  dtrace: sync dlibs with tcp.d, ip.d and net.d changes
