Hi all,
  I want to count the total read inode from disk. 
  I count the call number of xfs_dinoe_from_disk.
 But at the same time, I use blktrace to trace all read-meta operation. And using xfs_db to analysis the read-operation. I found more meta-read are read inode.
But the count of systemtap is zero.

The script of systemtap

#! /usr/bin/env stap
global count
function report()
{
  printf("total count %u\n", count)
}
probe module("xfs").function("xfs_dinode_from_disk")
{
  count++
}
probe end
{
  report()
}
probe begin
{
  printf("starting probe\n")
  count = 0
}


Who know why? And How to do which can achieve my aim.


Thanks!
