some performance numbers may be interesting.
HW: Berlin arm64 platform, cpufreq is forced to 800MHZ
SW: getppid syscall micro-benchmark, source code is put at the end of this email.
A. Not probed.
B. Probed at __arm64_sys_getppid w/ non-operation probe functions, w/o KPROBES_ON_FTRACE
C. Probed at __arm64_sys_getppid w/ non-operation probe functions, w/ KPROBES_ON_FTRACE
A: 1905 ns/call
B: 5833 ns/call
C: 2169 ns/call
The overhead of kprobes is 5833 - 1905 = 3928 ns/call
The overhead of kprobes w/ KPROBES_ON_FTRACE is 2169 - 1905 = 264 ns/call
As can be seen, KPROBES_ON_FTRACE significantly reduce the overhead of kprobes.
Thanks
