If you want to do stuff like this, anything you use to do it will have to look a lot like eBPF. eBPF doesn't make it easy, it only makes it possible. But dtrace was not eBPF.
Well, it would have been hard to be eBPF because it pre-dated it. But perhaps you meant to say that eBPF is not DTrace? On that point, certainly agreed.
