see my proposal A. I think ftrace instances might work for this.

I'm not sure about 'format' part though. Kernel side shouldn't be
aware of it. It's only the contract between bpf program and user process
that deals with it.

It is an option. Let's keep an open mind now :)

is now and create a independent method for your usecase?

Thank you.
