Demonstrations of opensnoop, the Linux bpftrace/eBPF version.
opensnoop traces the open() syscall system-wide, and prints various details.
Example output:
# ./opensnoop.bt

While tracing, at "ls" command was launched: the libraries it uses can be seen
as they were opened. Also, the snmpd process opened various /proc and /sys
files (reading metrics).
was starting up: a new process).
opensnoop can be useful for discovering configuration and log files, if used
during application startup.
There is another version of this tool in bcc: https://github.com/iovisor/bcc
The bcc version provides command line options to customize the output.
