varwatch.stp - Watch a Variable Changing Value in a Thread
This script places a set of probes (specified by $1), each of which monitors
the state of some context $variable expression (specified by $2). Whenever
the value changes, with respect to the active thread, the event is traced.

The output monitors the parameters to functions sys_*. This can
be narrowed down to follow a certain function, in this example
maybe sys_close, throughout a process's lifetime.
