  2  * kretprobe_example.c
  3  *
  4  * Here's a sample kernel module showing the use of return probes to
  5  * report the return value and total time taken for probed function
  6  * to run.
  7  *
  8  * usage: insmod kretprobe_example.ko func=<func_name>
  9  *
 10  * If no func_name is specified, do_fork is instrumented
 11  *
 12  * For more information on theory of operation of kretprobes, see
 13  * Documentation/kprobes.txt
 14  *
 15  * Build and insert the kernel module as done in the kprobe example.
 16  * You will see the trace data in /var/log/messages and on the console
 17  * whenever the probed function returns. (Some messages may be suppressed
 18  * if syslogd is configured to eliminate duplicate messages.)
