       scheduler.cpu_off
              Process is about to stop running on a cpu

               for details.

       scheduler.cpu_on
              Process is beginning execution on a cpu

               See probe::scheduler.cpu_on(3stap)
               for details.

       scheduler.tick
              Schedulers internal tick, a processes timeslice accounting
              is updated

               for details.

       scheduler.balance
              A cpu attempting to find more work.

               See probe::scheduler.balance(3stap)

       scheduler.ctxswitch
              A context switch is occuring.

       scheduler.kthread_stop
              A thread created by kthread_create is being stopped

               See probe::scheduler.kthread_stop(3stap)
               for details.

       scheduler.kthread_stop.return
              A kthread is stopped and gets the return value

               See probe::scheduler.kthread_stop.return(3stap)
               for details.

       scheduler.wait_task
              Waiting on a task to unschedule (become inactive)

               See probe::scheduler.wait_task(3stap)
               for details.

       scheduler.wakeup
              Task is woken up

               See probe::scheduler.wakeup(3stap)
               for details.

       scheduler.wakeup_new
              Newly created task is woken up for the first time

               See probe::scheduler.wakeup_new(3stap)
               for details.

       scheduler.migrate
              Task migrating across cpus

               See probe::scheduler.migrate(3stap)
               for details.

       scheduler.process_free
              Scheduler freeing a data structure for a process

               See probe::scheduler.process_free(3stap)
               for details.

       scheduler.process_exit
              Process exiting

               See probe::scheduler.process_exit(3stap)
               for details.

       scheduler.process_wait
              Scheduler starting to wait on a process

               See probe::scheduler.process_wait(3stap)
               for details.

       scheduler.process_fork
              Process forked

               See probe::scheduler.process_fork(3stap)
