+/**
+ * @defgroup Profiling Profiling Support
+ *
+ * @brief The profiling support offers functions to report profiling
+ * information available in the system.
+ *
+ * Profiling support is by default disabled. It must be enabled via the
+ * configure command line with the <tt>--enable-profiling</tt> option. In this
+ * case the RTEMS_PROFILING pre-processor symbol is defined and profiling
+ * statistics will be gathered during system run-time. The profiling support
+ * increases the time of critical sections and has some memory overhead. The
+ * overhead should be acceptable for most applications. The aim of the
+ * profiling implementation is to be available even for production systems so
+ * that verification is simplified.
+ *
+ * Profiling information includes critical timing values such as the maximum
+ * time of disabled thread dispatching which is a measure for the thread
+ * dispatch latency. On SMP configurations statistics of all SMP locks in the
+ * system are available.
+ *
+ * Profiling information can be retrieved via rtems_profiling_iterate() and
+ * reported as an XML dump via rtems_profiling_report_xml(). These functions
+ * are always available, but actual profiling data is only available if enabled
+ * at build configuration time.
