Logical continuation of the eBPF in EVE is Perforator

Open rouming opened this issue 8 months ago • 3 comments

Hey, EVE. I came across this Yandex development: https://github.com/yandex/perforator, I remembered the eBPF support in EVE, made by @christoph-zededa. I haven't looked at the Perforator code itself in details, but it seems that integrating this would be a logical continuation of what is already laid down as a basis in EVE with Christoph's efforts. Feel free to close this if my assumption is all wrong.

Hello @rouming , Thank you for this suggestion! Do you have experience with it as a user? I am asking because I read a lot about "performance profiling" on their site, but I am not sure if that is currently a high priority for us and so I'd like to know how good it is beyond "performance profiling", f.e. to debug user issues or to do memory profiling.

No, @christoph-zededa, have not tried it. I liked the idea which seemed to me quite close, to what you've started. They have some cli tool, which can be quite easy explorable. Probably this can be modular and easy expandable to what eve needs. Anyway, interesting to investigate
