Description-en: DTrace-like tools for Linux
A miscellaneous collection of in-development and unsupported
performance analysis tools for Linux perf_events, aka the "perf"
command, and ftrace. Both perf_events and ftrace are core Linux
tracing tools, and are included in the Linux kernel source.
.
These tools are designed to be simple to use, easy to install, and
provide advanced performance observability. This collection was
written by Brendan Gregg (author of the DTraceToolkit).
.
Many of these tools employ workarounds so that functionality is
possible on existing Linux kernels. Because of this, many tools have
caveats (see man pages), and their implementation should be
considered a placeholder until future kernel features, or new tracing
subsystems, are added.
