+What:		/sys/kernel/profile
+Date:		September 2008
+Contact:	Dave Hansen <dave@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
+Description:
+		/sys/kernel/profile is the runtime equivalent
+		of the boot-time profile= option.
+
+		You can get the same effect running:
+
+			echo 2 > /sys/kernel/profile
+
+		as you would by issuing profile=2 on the boot
+		command line.
