stapprobes.signal.5.in:

    document signal syscall

hookiddefs.stp:
    some changes to the hookid:

    Now the hookid of a return type event(addevent.*.return)
    should be an even number and its value should be the
    corresponding entry event hookid +1.

    The hookid of a non-return type event should be an odd
    number.

    Add the hookid of HOOKID_REGEVTDESC


register_event.stp:

    add register_evt_desc() to register the description of an event.

    Change the register_sys_event() to add the an argument
    representing event description

    Allow to use empty format string and empty field name when
    calling register_event().

    Change all calling to register_sys_event() to add an
    argument which represents the event description.

    Change register_evt_desc() and register_event() to add an argument
    representing the event description string, which could help
    facilitate the error debugging.


iosyscall.stp:
    bugfix to add the variable GroupID and hookID


nfs.stp:
    bugfix to add some omitted probe definitions.


nfs_proc.stp:
    bugfix of the wrong calling to _lket_trace() for
    nfs_proc.remove.entry.
