trace Linux syscalls using the FTRACE kernel framework

This package utilizes the FTRACE kernel framework in order to trace system calls and kernel events from user space in Go programs.

Ftrace is an internal tracer designed to help out developers and designers of systems to find what is going on inside the kernel. It can be used for debugging or analyzing latencies and performance issues that take place outside of user-space.

Although ftrace is typically considered the function tracer it is really a framework of several assorted tracing utilities; there's latency tracing to examine what occurs between interrupts disabled and enabled as well as for preemption and from a time a task is woken to the task is actually scheduled in.
