11 * This is the core of the buffer management. Each
12 * CPU buffer is processed and entered into the
13 * global event buffer. Such processing is necessary
14 * in several circumstances, mentioned below.
16 * The processing does the job of converting the
17 * transitory EIP value into a persistent dentry/offset
18 * value that the profiler can record at its leisure.
20 * See fs/dcookies.c for a description of the dentry/offset
21 * objects.
