Description
I am using BCC Python Interface to record DTrace probes. Along with the event information, I receive the monotonic time.
What I want is:
I want to change the source of bcc/bpftrace to read event time in my own way.
For example, using Assembly “RDTSCP“.
Any pointers on how to do thaaaat?

Research direction
Start by reviewing the bcc/bpftrace source used by the BCC Python interface and how it records monotonic event time for DTrace probes. Determine where a custom source such as Assembly RDTSCP would fit, then document the required behavior and a way to verify the resulting event timestamps.
