Created by Alastair Robertson , bpftrace is an open source high-level tracing front-end that lets you analyze systems in custom ways. eBPF (extended Berkeley Packet Filter) is in the Linux kernel and is the new hotness in systems engineering. bcc is powerful but laborious to program. It's shaping up to be a DTrace version 2.0:
