-.SH MAKING DO WITH SYMBOL TABLES
-Systemtap performs best when it has access to the debugging information
-associated with your kernel and modules.
-However, if this information is not available,
-systemtap can still support probing of function entries and returns
-using symbols read from vmlinux and/or the modules in /lib/modules.
-Systemtap can also read the kernel symbol table from a text file
-such as /boot/System.map or /proc/kallsyms.
