Works perfectly this way. Is it generally sufficient to just install the 
kernel-debuginfo packages, and then the systemtap tarball?

[root@x8dth-1 systemtap]# /usr/local/systemtap/bin/stap schedtimes.stp
all mode
         execname:    pid    run(us)  sleep(us) io_wait(us) queued(us) 
total(us)

             init:      1          6    3549288          0          3 
  3549297
      migration/0:      2          3    3027334          0          3
....

Now for the results: what I want to figure out with this script is 
whether there are situations where a thread (user space, in my case) 
wants to run, but has to wait to be scheduled on a CPU. This should 
exactly be what the "queued" column contains, right?
