.Sh DESCRIPTION
The

driver is a
.Xr tprof 4
backend driver, which uses performance-monitoring events available for
some of AMD processors.
.Pp
It programs the processors so that "CPU Clocks not Halted" events
(event select 0x76) to raise NMIs and the NMI handler collects
a sample.

.Sh NAME
.Nm tprof
.Nd a sampling based profiler
.\" ------------------------------------------------------------
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Cd pseudo-device tprof
.\" ------------------------------------------------------------
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
driver provides kernel services necessary for
.Xr tprof 8 .
.Pp
Specifically, it makes its backend driver collect profiling samples and
provide them to the userland consumer.
.Pp
The API/ABI is currently undocumented and will likely change in future
without keeping compatibility.
