+ * This module creates a trace channel and places a kprobe
+ * on the function do_fork(). The value of current->pid is written to
+ * the trace channel each time the kprobe is hit..
+ *
+ * How to run the example:
+ * $ mount -t debugfs /debug
+ * $ insmod fork_trace.ko
+ *
+ * To view the data produced by the module:
+ * $ cat /debug/trace_example/do_fork/trace0
+ *
