/*
 * Here's a sample kernel module showing the use of jprobes to dump
 * the arguments of do_fork().
 *
 * For more information on theory of operation of jprobes, see
 * Documentation/kprobes.txt
 *
 * Build and insert the kernel module as done in the kprobe example.
 * You will see the trace data in /var/log/messages and on the
 * console whenever do_fork() is invoked to create a new process.
 * (Some messages may be suppressed if syslogd is configured to
 * eliminate duplicate messages.)
