+# UDP Provider
+
+The `udp` provider makes available a probe at UDP send operations in the system and a probe at receive.
+
+**Parent topic:**[DTrace Provider Reference](../reference/dtrace_providers.md)
+
+## udp Probes <a id="dt_ref_udpprobes_prov">
+
+`udp` provides a probe for UDP sends and one for UDP receives.
+The module name is always `vmlinux` and the function name is empty.
+
+## udp Probe Arguments <a id="dt_ref_udpargs_prov">
+
+The following table lists the argument types for both the `send` and `receive` probes.
+
+| arg       | type           |
+| :---      | :---           |
+| `args[0]` | `pktinfo_t *`  |
+| `args[1]` | `csinfo_t *`   |
+| `args[2]` | `ipinfo_t *`   |
+| `args[3]` | `udpsinfo_t *` |
+| `args[4]` | `udpinfo_t *`  |
+
+The `pktinfo_t`, `csinfo_t`, and `ipinfo_t` structures are described in [IP Provider](dtrace_providers_ip.md).
+
+### udpsinfo\_t <a id="dt_ref_udpudps_prov">
+
+The `udpsinfo_t` structure contains stable UDP details from `udp_t`.
+Detailed information about this data structure can be found in `/usr/lib64/dtrace/*version*/udp.d`.
+The definition of `udpsinfo_t` is as follows:
+
+```nocopybutton
+typedef struct udpsinfo {
+        uintptr_t udps_addr;
+        uint16_t udps_lport;   /* local port */
+        uint16_t udps_rport;   /* remote port */
+        string udps_laddr;     /* local address, as a string */
+        string udps_raddr;     /* remote address, as a string */
+} udpsinfo_t;
+```
+
+**Note:**
+
+DTrace translates the members of `udpsinfo_t` from a `struct udp_sock *`.
+
+### udpinfo\_t <a id="dt_ref_udpudp_prov">
+
+The `udpinfo_t` structure contains the UDP header fields.
+Detailed information about this data structure can be found in `/usr/lib64/dtrace/*version*/udp.d`.
+The definition of `udpinfo_t` is as follows:
+
+```nocopybutton
+typedef struct udpinfo {
+        uint16_t udp_sport;     /* source port */
+        uint16_t udp_dport;     /* destination port */
+        uint16_t udp_length;    /* total length */
+        uint16_t udp_checksum;  /* headers + data checksum */
+        struct udphdr *udp_hdr; /* raw UDP header */
+} udpinfo_t;
+```
+
+**Note:**
+
+DTrace translates the members of `udpinfo_t` from a `struct udphdr *`.
+
+## udp Stability <a id="dt_ref_udpstab_prov">
+
+The `udp` provider uses DTrace's stability mechanism to describe its stabilities. These stability values are listed in the following table.
+
+| Element   | Name Stability | Data Stability | Dependency Class |
+| :---      | :---           | :---           | :---             |
+| Provider  | Evolving       | Evolving       | ISA              |
+| Module    | Private        | Private        | Unknown          |
+| Function  | Private        | Private        | Unknown          |
+| Name      | Evolving       | Evolving       | ISA              |
+| Arguments | Evolving       | Evolving       | ISA              |
