DESCRIPTION

10         This family of probe points is used to probe signal activities.
11         Since there are so many signals sent to processes at any given
12         point, it is advisable to filter the information according to the
13         requirements.  For example, filter only for a particular signal
14         (if sig==2) or for a particular process (if pid_name==stap).
