uthreads, cthreads, javathreads - Trace thread creation events in Java or pthreads.

       Sasha Goldshtein

       This  traces  thread creation events in Java processes, or pthread creation events in any process. When a
       thread is created, its name or start address is printed.

       Since this uses BPF, only the root user can use this tool.

       Trace Java thread creations:
              # uthreads-ljava148

       Trace pthread creations:
              # uthreads1802

       TIME   The event's time in seconds from the beginning of the trace.

       ID     The thread's ID. The information in this column depends on the runtime.

       TYPE   Event type -- thread start, stop, or pthread event.

       DESCRIPTION
              The thread's name or start address function name.

       uthreads, cthreads, javathreads - Trace thread creation events in Java or pthreads.

       -l {c,java,none}
              The language to trace. C and none select tracing pthreads only, regardless of  the  runtime  being
              traced.

       -v     Print the resulting BPF program, for debugging purposes.

       pid    The process id to trace.

       Linux

       Thread start and stop events are usually not very frequent, which makes this tool's overhead negligible.

       CONFIG_BPF and bcc.

       commentary for this tool.

       Unstable - in development.
