# bcc snap This is an unconfined snap of the BPF Compiler Collection (BCC), a toolkit for creating efficient kernel tracing and manipulation programs. First, install snapcraft, e.g. on Ubuntu: sudo snap install snapcraft --classic Clone the bcc repo (if you haven't done so already) and create the snap: git clone https://github.com/iovisor/bcc.git snapcraft Install the snap by running (`--dangerous` is required as the snap is not coming from the Snap Store): sudo snap install --dangerous bcc_*.snap One may need to ensure the snap interfaces are connected for the snap using: sudo snap connect bcc:mount-observe sudo snap connect bcc:system-observe sudo snap connect bcc:system-trace Now run a bcc tool, for example, to run opensnoop use: sudo bcc.opensnoop Note that this may fail to build and run if you do not have the kernel headers installed or perhaps the kernel config is not set up correctly. This snap has been tested using the mainly 4.8 and 4.9 kernels built with the Ubuntu Yakkety and Zesty kernel configs as well as the default Ubuntu 4.8 Yakkey and 4.9 Zesty kernels. Contact Colin Ian King for support on this bcc snap. Thu 15 Dec 17:08:29 GMT 2016
