We did test with ebpf with kprobe in the past (~kernel 4.4/4.14), we saw 10% performance drop, that's the reason we develop this stats patches. But I just did another test with bpftrace on k 5.10.30, I do not see performance lost. It must be ebpf is improving very much since then. So to summarize, we can use bpftrace to do the drop in latest kernel, there is no need to have it build into the kernel. Thanks! the bpftrace I used during testing: root@x4-left:~# cat /usr/sbin/biolatency.bt #!/usr/bin/env bpftrace /* * biolatency.bt Block I/O latency as a histogram. * For Linux, uses bpftrace, eBPF. * * This is a bpftrace version of the bcc tool of the same name. * * Copyright 2018 Netflix, Inc. * Licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0 (the "License") * * 13-Sep-2018 Brendan Gregg Created this. */ BEGIN { printf("Tracing block device I/O...
