#
# funclatency   Time functions and print latency as a histogram.
#               For Linux, uses BCC, eBPF.
#
# USAGE: funclatency [-h] [-p PID] [-i INTERVAL] [-T] [-u] [-m] [-F] [-r] [-v]
#                    pattern
#
# Run "funclatency -h" for full usage.
#
# The pattern is a string with optional '*' wildcards, similar to file
# globbing. If you'd prefer to use regular expressions, use the -r option.
#
# Currently nested or recursive functions are not supported properly, and
# timestamps will be overwritten, creating dubious output. Try to match single
# functions, or groups of functions that run at the same stack layer, and
# don't ultimately call each other.
