+ *
+ * Jprobes (a.k.a. "jump probes" which is built on-top of kprobes) allow a
+ * probe to be inserted into the beginning of a function call.  The fundamental
+ * difference between a jprobe and a kprobe is the jprobe handler is executed
+ * in the same context as the target function, while the kprobe handlers
+ * are executed in interrupt context.
+ *
+ * For jprobes we initially gain control by placing a break point in the
+ * first instruction of the targeted function.  When we catch that specific
+ * break, we:
+ *        * set the return address to our jprobe_inst_return() function
+ *        * jump to the jprobe handler function
+ *
+ * Since we fixed up the return address, the jprobe handler will return to our
+ * jprobe_inst_return() function, giving us control again.  At this point we
+ * are back in the parents frame marker, so we do yet another call to our
+ * jprobe_break() function to fix up the frame marker as it would normally
+ * exist in the target function.
+ *
+ * Our jprobe_return function then transfers control back to kprobes.c by
+ * executing a break instruction using one of our reserved numbers.  When we
+ * catch that break in kprobes.c, we continue like we do for a normal kprobe
+ * by single stepping the emulated instruction, and then returning execution
+ * to the correct location.
