i dont know which distro you ( Dipanjan Das ) using , but in fedora i should use something like this for kmalloc : ┌─[✗]─[13:18:11]─[navid@HOME] └──> ~ $ >> man -k kmalloc probe::vm.kmalloc (3stap) - Fires when kmalloc is requested probe::vm.kmalloc_node (3stap) - Fires when kmalloc_node is requested ┌─[13:18:12]─[navid@HOME] └──> ~ $ >> man probe::vm.kmalloc seems man files divided to probe and subsystem vm and functions. if you cannot find yet, you should ask your distro IRC/mailing list to what to do next. best wishes, -navid On Tue, Jun 3, 2014 at 10:49 PM, John de la Garza <john@jjdev.com> wrote:

Hi,
Like there is section #2 of man pages dedicated to syscalls, is there any official way to get the list of all supported Kernal APIs?
check out the man page for man itself (man man)
look for this:
9 Kernel routines [Non standard]
You may need to install them (man 9 files) as they may not be installed
###### example
john@vega:~/download/koans$ man -k printk printk (9) - print a kernel message printk_timed_ratelimit (9) - caller-controlled printk ratelimiting snd_printd (9) - debug printk snd_printdd (9) - debug printk snd_printk (9) - printk wrapper trace_printk (9) - printf formatting in the ftrace buffer
