bcc and bpftrace should be able to match my requirement, I will look
into them, many thanks.

hi Daniel,
Thanks for liking the idea.
My target is embedded devices, that's why i get started from ebpf
C.bcc and bpftrace is a good idea, but i prefer taking one thing at a
time, what's more, i'm not familiar with python, it might take longer.
Once C code is accepted, i will move myself to bcc and bpftrace. Is it
ok for you?
The libbpf-based tools from the mentioned link in BCC are all C, not
Python. Also bpftrace
has guidelines for building it more portably that would be suitable for
embedded devices [2].
I'd presume these should still match your requirements?
Right now samples/bpf/ is a bit of a dumping ground of random things,
some BPF samples better
maintained than others, but generally samples/bpf/ is a bit of a mess.
BPF has a huge ecosystem
outside of kernel in its various areas it covers, so it has outgrown the
few samples in there
long ago, and you'll find many resources on how to get started in the wild.
Adding this as a samples/bpf/ will have little value to others, since
people may not be aware
of them, and if they are they need to manually build/ship it, etc. If
you upstream and can improve
the tools in bpftrace/bcc as pointed out, then a lot more people will be
able to consume them
and benefit from it, and you get the shipping via distros for free.

Thanks again,

I'm planning to implement a couple of ebpf tools for preempt rt,
including irq latency, preempt latency and so on, how does it sound
to you?
Sounds great, thanks! Please add these tools for upstream inclusion
either to bpftrace [0] or
bcc [1], then a wider range of users would be able to benefit from
them as well as they are
also shipped as distro packages and generally more widely used
compared to kernel samples.
Thanks Song!
