# urandomread-explicit Example of instrumenting a kernel tracepoint.
# For Linux, uses BCC, BPF. Embedded C.
#
# This is an older example of instrumenting a tracepoint, which defines
# the argument struct and makes an explicit call to attach_tracepoint().
# See urandomread for a newer version that uses TRACEPOINT_PROBE().
#
# REQUIRES: Linux 4.7+ (BPF_PROG_TYPE_TRACEPOINT support).
#
# Test by running this, then in another shell, run:
# dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/null bs=1k count=5
