      staging: ktap: add to the kernel tree · c63a1642
      Jovi Zhangwei authored
      This patch introduces ktap to staging tree.
      
      ktap is a new script-based dynamic tracing tool for Linux,
      it uses a scripting language and lets users trace the
      Linux kernel dynamically. ktap is designed to give
      operational insights with interoperability that allow
      users to tune, troubleshoot and extend kernel and application.
      It's similar with Linux Systemtap and Solaris Dtrace.
      
      ktap have different design principles from Linux mainstream
      dynamic tracing language in that it's based on bytecode,
      so it doesn't depend upon GCC, doesn't require compiling
      kernel module for each script, safe to use in production
      environment, fulfilling the embedded ecosystem's tracing needs.
      
      See ktap tutorial for more information:
          http://www.ktap.org/doc/tutorial.html
      
      
      
      The merit of putting this software in staging tree is
      to make it more possible to get feedback from users
      and thus polish the code.
