Demonstrations of vfsstat, the Linux eBPF/bcc version.


This traces some common VFS calls and prints per-second summaries. By default,
the output interval is one second:

# ./vfsstat 
TIME         READ/s  WRITE/s CREATE/s   OPEN/s  FSYNC/s
18:35:32:       231       12        4       98        0

Here we are using an output interval of five seconds, and printing three output
lines:

# ./vfsstat 5 3
TIME         READ/s  WRITE/s CREATE/s   OPEN/s  FSYNC/s
18:35:55:       238        8        3      101        0
18:36:00:       962      233        4      247        0
18:36:05:       241        8        3      100        0
