readprofile - a tool to read kernel profiling information
The readprofile command uses the /proc/profile information to print ascii data
on standard output. The output is organized in three columns: the first is the
number of clock ticks, the second is the name of the C function in the kernel
where those many ticks occurred, and the third is the normalized `load' of the
procedure, calculated as a ratio between the number of ticks and the length of
the procedure. The output is filled with blanks to ease readability.
