  Description     : Light-weight dynamic tracer for Linux

A light-weight dynamic tracer for Linux that leverages the kernel's BPF VM
in concert with kprobes and tracepoints to attach probes to arbitrary points
in the kernel. ply follows the Little Language approach of yore, compiling ply
scripts into Linux BPF programs that are attached to kprobes and tracepoints in
the kernel.
