Documentation is sparse in details. Is this built on top of kprobes[1]? If so a comparison with perf, systemtap, et al is probably more appropriate. Do you support utrace&#x2F;uprobes or similar for userland work?<p>Is data selection&#x2F;manipulation&#x2F;summarization available on the kernal side? At high rates extracting enough&#x2F;iptimal data has caught me with other linux probe based tools.<p>I like the ring buffer and scap concept. Very nice compared to the full dump or summarized stats other tools focus on.<p>[1] <a href="https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/kprobes.txt" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.kernel.org&#x2F;doc&#x2F;Documentation&#x2F;kprobes.txt</a>

Isn&#x27;t it premature to be comparing sysdig to DTrace?

Fantastic tool and it feels a lot better than digging around with `dtrace`. Really looking forward to help on the OSX side as it will help us tremendously.

A comparison to perf (specifically its use of tracepoints, ring-buffers, user-side scripted postprocessing) would be apropos.

Dynamic code execution in the kernel - what could possibly go wrong?
