Demonstrations of dcsnoop, the Linux eBPF/bcc version.
dcsnoop traces directory entry cache (dcache) lookups, and can be used for
further investigation beyond dcstat(8). The output is likely verbose, as
dcache lookups are likely frequent. By default, only failed lookups are shown.
For example:
# ./dcsnoop.py
TIME(s) PID COMM T FILE
0.002837 1643 snmpd M net/dev
0.002852 1643 snmpd M 1643
0.002856 1643 snmpd M net
0.002863 1643 snmpd M dev
0.002952 1643 snmpd M net/if_inet6
0.002964 1643 snmpd M if_inet6

0.003192 1643 snmpd M ipv4/neigh/eth0/retrans_time_ms

0.003295 1643 snmpd M forwarding
0.003326 1643 snmpd M base_reachable_time_ms

I ran a drop caches at the same time as executing this tool. The output shows
the processes, the type of event ("T" column: M == miss, R == reference),
and the filename for the dcache lookup.
The way the dcache is currently implemented, each component of a path is
checked in turn. The first line, showing "net/dev" from snmp, will be a lookup
for "net" in a directory (that isn't shown here). If it finds "net", it will
then lookup "dev" inside net. You can see this sequence a little later,
starting at time 0.003180, where a pathname is being searched
directory by directory.
The -a option will show all lookups, although be warned, the output will be
very verbose. For example:
