new web site for Bruning Systems

Hi,
I have finally gotten around to updating the web site. Still need to
add the dtrace scripts, but first I need to document them.

snooping gld-based NIC drivers using dtrace

Hi.
I have just posted a script at http://www.bruningsystems.com/rtlsio.p
that allows one to snoop incoming/outgoing packets on a Realtek NIC.
The script is very easy to change for any other GLD-based NIC (see
the comment at the beginning of the script to determine what needs
to be changed.)
To run the script, save it and then:

# dtrace -q -C -s ./rtlsio.p

Let me know what you think.

dtrace script to trace kernel thread state changes

I just posted a script that traces kernel thread state changes to the dtrace
forum on forum.sun.com. You can also find it at http://www.bruningsystems.com/runq.d

Have fun.

solaris kernel memory usage

This is a test. I am currently working on answering a question
from a former student about kernel memory. The question and
answer will be here shortly.
