/*
* NOTE: This example is works on x86 and powerpc.
* Here's a sample kernel module showing the use of kprobes to dump a
* stack trace and selected registers when do_fork() is called.
*
* For more information on theory of operation of kprobes, see
* Documentation/kprobes.txt
*
* You will see the trace data in /var/log/messages and on the console
* whenever do_fork() is invoked to create a new process.
