I guess I could put an initscript in blktrace, which is atm (afaik) the only program using it. I'm not sure I really like that solution though, as debugfs is a generic kernel feature and not specific to blktrace afaik. As the kernel developers put it: "In principle, it is the same as /proc, just with the explicit information that binary compatibility will never be a goal" [1]. So I would find it most natural to do the mounting alongside with mounting /sys and /proc. Bas.
