Tracing / BPF
Microconference Session

One Line Summary

Talk about ways to make using BPF less awful for non-kernel hackers.

Abstract

BPF/BCC have weird gotchas that often bite even experienced developers in the ass. In addition to that you often need a very intimate working knowledge of the kernel in order to even know where to look for a problem. We are getting better at solving these problems, but it would be good to look at what problems we currently have and where we need to go to solve them.
