Explore the challenges and solutions for tracing resource-constrained embedded systems using eBPF in this 33-minute conference talk. Learn about the power of eBPF/IOVisor for system tracing and the significant hurdles faced when applying these tools to embedded devices. Discover the brief introduction to eBPF's capabilities and the mainstream tracing methods using the eBPF Compiler Collection. Examine the portability problems, kernel headers and build issues, and size constraints that must be overcome for embedded implementations. Gain insights into four separate projects aimed at bringing eBPF functionality to embedded systems, their different approaches, trade-offs, stages of completion, and areas requiring further development. Understand the complexities and potential of eBPF tracing in resource-limited environments to enhance your embedded systems development and debugging skills.
