// Getting the terminology right is usually the hardest part. For posterity and
// for staying sane during implementation:
//
// - trace event: Representation of a kernel runtime hook. Filesystem entries
//   under <tracefs>/events. Can be tracepoints (static), kprobes or uprobes.
//   Can be instantiated into perf events (see below).
// - tracepoint: A predetermined hook point in the kernel. Exposed as trace
//   events in (sub)directories under <tracefs>/events. Cannot be closed or
//   removed, they are static.
// - k(ret)probe: Ephemeral trace events based on entry or exit points of
//   exported kernel symbols. kprobe-based (tracefs) trace events can be
//   created system-wide by writing to the <tracefs>/kprobe_events file, or
//   they can be scoped to the current process by creating PMU perf events.
// - u(ret)probe: Ephemeral trace events based on user provides ELF binaries
//   and offsets. uprobe-based (tracefs) trace events can be
//   created system-wide by writing to the <tracefs>/uprobe_events file, or
//   they can be scoped to the current process by creating PMU perf events.
// - perf event: An object instantiated based on an existing trace event or
//   kernel symbol. Referred to by fd in userspace.
//   Exactly one eBPF program can be attached to a perf event. Multiple perf
//   events can be created from a single trace event. Closing a perf event
//   stops any further invocations of the attached eBPF program.
