# filelife    Trace the lifespan of short-lived files.
#             For Linux, uses BCC, eBPF. Embedded C.
#
# This traces the creation and deletion of files, providing information
# on who deleted the file, the file age, and the file name. The intent is to
# provide information on short-lived files, for debugging or performance
# analysis.
