12 * This module is a simple test of basic functionality for in-kernel
13 * kprobe/kretprobe event creation. The first test uses
14 * kprobe_event_gen_cmd_start(), kprobe_event_add_fields() and
15 * kprobe_event_gen_cmd_end() to create a kprobe event, which is then
16 * enabled in order to generate trace output. The second creates a
17 * kretprobe event using kretprobe_event_gen_cmd_start() and
18 * kretprobe_event_gen_cmd_end(), and is also then enabled.
20 * To test, select CONFIG_KPROBE_EVENT_GEN_TEST and build the module.
23 * # insmod kernel/trace/kprobe_event_gen_test.ko
24 * # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace
26 * You should see many instances of the "gen_kprobe_test" and
27 * "gen_kretprobe_test" events in the trace buffer.
29 * To remove the events, remove the module:

*gen_kprobe_test
