Blocked Samples hooks the Linux scheduler to emit synthetic Off-CPU samples alongside perf's On-CPU data — giving bperf unified profiles and BCOZ causal what-if analysis, all at 1.6% overhead.
How eBPF Profiling Works Without DWARF at Runtime
A deep dive into the opentelemetry-ebpf-profiler codebase — DWARF pre-compilation, three-level map hierarchies, tail call chains, and the engineering decisions behind production-grade continuous profiling.
