## What it is
A collection of examples and hands-on labs for Linux tracing workshops covering tools like ftrace, perf, and BPF/BCC. It includes guided exercises for CPU sampling, flame graphs, file I/O tracing, memory leak hunting, and writing custom BPF tools.

## Use cases
- learn linux tracing with bpf and bcc
- hands-on labs for perf and flame graphs
- trace file i/o and find memory leaks with bpf tools
- write custom bpf tracing tools
- prepare for a linux observability workshop
- learn ftrace and kernel tracepoints

## When to choose
- you want structured, hands-on exercises for learning Linux tracing tools
- you need workshop material covering perf, ftrace, and BCC/BPF
- you learn best by following guided labs on a real Linux system

## When to avoid
- you need a production tracing tool rather than educational material
- you don't have access to a Linux 4.6+ machine with the required tooling
- you need up-to-date content for the latest BPF tooling developments

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: maintenance
- function: monitoring, tracing, developer-tools
- domain: developer-tools, performance, operating-systems, tutorials
- platform: cli
- tags: bpf, bcc, perf, ftrace, flame-graphs, workshop, observability, hands-on-labs, linux
