DTrace4Linux is an attempt (from UK developer Paul Fox, also known for his CRiSP editor) to bring the power of DTrace to Linux. It’s a kernel module (No kernel recompilation required! Yay!) and userland tools.
I did a bit of hacking around with Vagrant and Puppet and VirtualBox to make it dead easy to try.
- An OVA file for Ubuntu with DTrace4Linux kernel module already built and installed. Import the OVA into VirtualBox et al, boot it up, and try something like
sudo dtrace -l - A
.vmwaremvm that should be importable into VMware Player - Pull request with
Vagrantfile— for Vagrant
