+Subject: [PATCH] tracepoint, vfs, sched: Add exec() tracepoint
+
+Added a minimal exec tracepoint. Exec is an important major event
+in the life of a task, like fork(), clone() or exit(), all of
+which we already trace.
+
+[ We also do scheduling re-balancing during exec() - so it's useful
+  from a scheduler instrumentation POV as well. ]
+
+If you want to watch a task start up, when it gets exec'ed is a good place
+to start.  With the addition of this tracepoint, exec's can be monitored
+and better picture of general system activity can be obtained. This
+tracepoint will also enable better process life tracking, allowing you to
+answer questions like "what process keeps starting up binary X?".
+
+This tracepoint can also be useful in ftrace filtering and trigger
+conditions: i.e. starting or stopping filtering when exec is called.
