eBPF support #55

Closed ghost closed 5 years ago

ghost commented 6 years ago

Hey there,

I love this project, and after seeing the benefits of eBPF versus perf from this blog:

http://www.brendangregg.com/blog/2016-01-20/ebpf-offcpu-flame-graph.html

I wanted to get eBPF working with flamescope too. I took a look and if I'm not mistaken, the format between perf and eBPF are quite different. Is there any way to use eBPF here?

Thanks, Anthony

@brendangregg the output of the current bcc tool is folded, correct? If that's the case, we can't really use it here because of the time dimension. bpftrace?
