9 * This is the core of the buffer management. Each
10 * CPU buffer is processed and entered into the
11 * global event buffer. Such processing is necessary
12 * in several circumstances, mentioned below.
14 * The processing does the job of converting the
15 * transitory EIP value into a persistent dentry/offset
16 * value that the profiler can record at its leisure.
18 * See fs/dcookies.c for a description of the dentry/offset
19 * objects.
