#
# profile  Profile CPU usage by sampling stack traces at a timed interval.
#          For Linux, uses BCC, BPF, perf_events. Embedded C.
#
# This is an efficient profiler, as stack traces are frequency counted in
# kernel context, rather than passing every stack to user space for frequency
# counting there. Only the unique stacks and counts are passed to user space
# at the end of the profile, greatly reducing the kernel<->user transfer.
#
# This uses perf_event_open to setup a timer which is instrumented by BPF,
# and for efficiency it does not initialize the perf ring buffer, so the
# redundant perf samples are not collected.
#
# Kernel stacks are post-process in user-land to skip the interrupt framework
# frames. You can improve efficiency a little by specifying the exact number
# of frames to skip with -s, provided you know what that is. If you get -s
# wrong, note that the first line is the IP, and then the (skipped) stack.
#
# Note: if another perf-based sampling session is active, the output may become
# polluted with their events. On older kernels, the output may also become
# polluted with tracing sessions (when the kprobe is used instead of the
# tracepoint). If this becomes a problem, logic can be added to filter events.
#
# REQUIRES: Linux 4.6+ (BPF_MAP_TYPE_STACK_TRACE support), and the
# perf_misc_flags() function symbol to exist. The latter may or may not
# exist depending on your kernel build. Linux 4.9 provides a proper solution
# to this (this tool will be updated).
