That's good to me.
I had ported most of probing points of LKST to some tapsets against
RHEL4U3. I'll release that code as soon as possible. It'll help you.

LKST already has post-processing tools(Lkst Log Tools). "lkstla" is the
core of these tools. Currently, this tool depends on LKST. But, I think
its framework can be adaptable for many kind of traced data.
