-/** @dir where_func
-This is a silly little instrumentation routine to instrument functions
-entry by name. It makes use of the SystemTap runtime libraries to break
-down the number of times the function by caller.
-
-It demonstrates kprobes, passing a module parameter, using the print buffer,
-and using _stp_print_symbol() to map the addresses back to locations
-in functions.
-
-By default it instruments schedule().
-
-The instrumentation module is built by having the kernel that is going
-to be instrumented currently on the machine and doing
-\code
-./build
-\endcode
-The instrumentation is inserted as root with:
-\code
-/sbin/insmod kprobe_funct_where.ko funct_name=function_name
-\endcode
-The instrumentation is removed as root with:
-\code
-/sbin/rmmod kprobe_funct_where
-\endcode

-Note that this module is broken now because we don't pass the module parameter
-tp staprun. FIXME
