Demonstrations of funcslower, the Linux eBPF/bcc version.
funcslower shows kernel or user function invocations slower than a threshold.
This can be used for last-resort diagnostics when aggregation-based tools have
failed. For example, trace the open() function in libc when it is slower than
1 microsecond (us):
# ./funcslower c:open -u 1
Tracing function calls slower than 1 us... Ctrl+C to quit.

This shows several open operations performed by less and some helpers it invoked
in the process. The latency (in microseconds) is shown, as well as the return
value from the open() function, which helps indicate if there is a correlation
between failures and slow invocations. Most open() calls seemed to have
completed successfully (returning a valid file descriptor), but some have failed
and returned -1.
You can also trace kernel functions:
# ./funcslower -m 10 vfs_read
Tracing function calls slower than 10 ms... Ctrl+C to quit.

bash 11527 78.97 1 vfs_read

bash 11527 101.49 1 vfs_read

Occasionally, it is also useful to see the arguments passed to the functions.
The raw hex values of the arguments are available when using the -a switch:
# ./funcslower __kmalloc -a 2 -u 1
Tracing function calls slower than 1 us... Ctrl+C to quit.

This shows the first two arguments to __kmalloc -- the first one is the size
of the requested allocation. The return value is also shown (null return values
would indicate a failure).
USAGE message:
