dtrace 2.0.5-1

Package Information

DescriptionDynamic tracing for Linux (DTrace)

This is the official Linux port of the advanced tracing tool DTrace.

DTrace is a high-level dynamic tracing tool for Linux, built on kernel tracing features (tracepoints, function probes (fentry/fexit), dynamic kernel probes (kprobes), dynamic userspace probes (uprobes), ... and leveraging BPF as execution engine. It features an integrated compiler for its high-level tracing language and native support for interacting with the BPF engine, significantly reducing runtime dependencies.
