-.SH DESCRIPTION
-
-This family of probe points is used to probe the process activities.
-It contains the following probe points:
-
-.P
-.TP
-.B process.create
-
-Fires whenever a new process is successfully created, either as a
-result of one of the fork syscall variants, or a new kernel thread.
-
-.B Arguments:
-
-.I task
- a handle to the newly created process
-
-.I new_pid
- pid of the newly created process
-
-.P
-.TP
-.B process.start
-
-Fires immediately before a new process begins execution.
-
-.B Arguments:
-
-.I N/A
-
-.P
-.TP
-.B process.exec
-
-Fires whenever a process attempts to exec to a new program
-
-.B Arguments:
-
-.I filename
- the path to the new executable
-
-.P
-.TP
-.B process.exec_complete
-
-Fires at the completion of an exec call
-
-.B Arguments:
-
-.I errno
- the error number resulting from the exec
-
-.I success
- a boolean indicating whether the exec was successful
-
-.P
-.TP
-.B process.exit
-
-Fires when a process terminates. This will always be followed by a
-process.release, though the latter may be delayed if the process
-waits in a zombie state.
-
-.B Arguments:
-
-.I code
- the exit code of the process
-
-.P
-.TP
-.B process.release
-
-Fires when a process is released from the kernel. This always
-follows a process.exit, though it may be delayed somewhat if the
-process waits in a zombie state.
-
-.B Arguments:
-
-.I task
- a task handle to the process being released
-
-.I pid
- pid of the process being released
