+   <para>
+     Tracepoints are static probe points that are located in strategic points
+     throughout the kernel. 'Probes' register/unregister with tracepoints
+     via a callback mechanism. The 'probes' are strictly typed functions that
+     are passed a unique set of parameters defined by each tracepoint.
+   </para>
+
+   <para>
+     From this simple callback mechanism, 'probes' can be used to profile, debug,
+     and understand kernel behavior. There are a number of tools that provide a
+     framework for using 'probes'. These tools include Systemtap, ftrace, and
+     LTTng.
+   </para>
+
+   <para>
+     Tracepoints are defined in a number of header files via various macros. Thus,
+     the purpose of this document is to provide a clear accounting of the available
+     tracepoints. The intention is to understand not only what tracepoints are
+     available but also to understand where future tracepoints might be added.
+   </para>
+
+   <para>
+     The API presented has functions of the form:
+     <function>trace_tracepointname(function parameters)</function>. These are the
+     tracepoints callbacks that are found throughout the code. Registering and
+     unregistering probes with these callback sites is covered in the
+     <filename>Documentation/trace/*</filename> directory.
