BCC源码内容概览（1）

接前一篇文章：BCC源码编译和安装

本文参考官网中的Contents部分的介绍。

BCC源码根目录的文件，其中一些是同时包含C和Python的单个文件，另一些是.c和.py的成对文件，还有一些是目录。

跟踪（Tracing）

examples目录下的文件：

• examples/tracing/bitehist.py

块I/O大小直方图。

bcc/examples/tracing/bitehist.txt文件内容如下：

Demonstrations of bitehist.py, the Linux eBPF/bcc version.
 
This prints a power-of-2 histogram to show the block I/O size distribution.
A summary is printed after Ctrl-C is hit.
 
# ./bitehist.py
Tracing... Hit Ctrl-C to end.

      16 -> 31       : 0        |                                      |
      32 -> 63       : 0        |                                      |
      64 -> 127      : 1        |                                      |
     128 -> 255      : 800      |**************************************|
 
This output shows a bimodal distribution. The largest mod of 800 I/O were
between 128 and 255 Kbytes in size, and another mode of 211 I/O were between
4 and 7 Kbytes in size.
 
Understanding this distribution is useful for characterizing workloads and
understanding performance. The existence of this distribution is not visible
from averages alone.

• examples/tracing/disksnoop.py

跟踪块设备I/O延迟。

bcc/examples/tracing/disksnoop_example.txt文件内容如下：

Demonstrations of disksnoop.py, the Linux eBPF/bcc version.
 
 
This traces block I/O, a prints a line to summarize each I/O completed:
 
# ./disksnoop.py

16458044.203091    R  4096        6.35
 
The output includes a basic timestamp (in seconds), the type of I/O (W == write,
R == read, M == metadata), the size of the I/O in bytes, and the latency (or
duration) of the I/O in milliseconds.
 
The latency is measured from I/O request to the device, to the device
completion. This excludes latency spent queued in the OS.
 
Most of the I/O in this example were 0.7 and 4 milliseconds in duration. There
was an outlier of 42.82 milliseconds, a read which followed many writes (the
high latency may have been caused by the writes still being serviced on the
storage device).

• examples/hello_world.py

为新进程打印“Hello, World!”。
