-This is a benchmark program for the SystemTap Runtime.
-
-It works by instrumenting sys_uid() and sys_gid(). It calls each a million
-times and measures how long it takes. Then it puts an empty kprobe on one and jprobe on the
-other and measures that. Subtracting the difference between the two runs gives
-the kprobe and jprobe overhead. The process is then repeated for more
-complicated probes.
-
-To Start:
-
-1. Build the test program.
-> gcc -O3 -o time time.c
-
-2. Run the benchmarks
-> ./run_bench
