2.2. Elements of a Tapset

Tapset files are stored in src/tapset/ of the SystemTap GIT directory. Most tapset files are kept at that level. If you have code that only works with a specific architecture or kernel version, you may choose to put your tapset in the appropriate subdirectory.

Installed tapsets are located in /usr/share/systemtap/tapset/ or /usr/local/share/systemtap/tapset.

Personal tapsets can be stored anywhere. However, to ensure that SystemTap can use them, use -I tapset_directory to specify their location when invoking stap.
