/*
* execsnoop.bt Trace new processes via exec() syscalls.
* For Linux, uses bpftrace and eBPF.
*
* This traces when processes call exec(). It is handy for identifying new
* processes created via the usual fork()->exec() sequence. Note that the
* return value is not currently traced, so the exec() may have failed.
*
* TODO: switch to tracepoints args. Support more args. Include retval.
*
* This is a bpftrace version of the bcc tool of the same name.
*
* 15-Nov-2017 Brendan Gregg Created this.
* 11-Sep-2018 " " Switched to use join().
