2006-10-22  Soren Sandmann <sandmann@daimi.au.dk>

	Communicate traces to userspace through shared memory instead of
	copying.

	* module/sysprof-module.c: Store the traces in a SysprofMmapArea.
	(sysprof_mmap): Implement this method.
	(sysprof_nopage): Implement this.
	(sysprof_read): Just reset the tail pointer and return zero.

	* module/sysprof-module.h (struct SysprofMmapArea): New
	structure.

	* collector.c (collector_stop): Unmap the device
	(in_dead_period): New function
	(on_read): Read the traces out of mmap()ed area instead of reading
	them. Call read() to prevent poll() from firing.
	(struct Collector): New members map_area and current.

	* Makefile.am (insert-module): Prefix modprobe with /sbin

	* collector.c (open_fd): mmap() the sysprof device.
