I think the > latter should suffice. Everything BPF-related will need to go through the userspace tool. From loa= ding monitors to enabling things, but it shouldn't require any recompilation. Right now I use only the -t flag (enable tracing and print to stdout), we'd= need some flag to only enable tracing. After that you should be able to use ftrace as normal. Gabriele
