+ * feature that is used for branch trace store (BTS) and
  * precise-event based sampling (PEBS).
  *
- * Different architectures use a different DS layout/pointer size.
- * The below functions therefore work on a void*.
+ * It manages:
+ * - per-thread and per-cpu allocation of BTS and PEBS
+ * - buffer memory allocation (optional)
+ * - buffer overflow handling
+ * - buffer access
  *
+ * It assumes:
+ * - get_task_struct on all parameter tasks
+ * - current is allowed to trace parameter tasks
  *
- * Since there is no user for PEBS, yet, only LBR (or branch
- * trace store, BTS) is supported.
