-<hr>
-<p>
-<strong>Function</strong> - Perform periodic PC sampling for a thread.
-<h3>SYNOPSIS</h3>
-<pre>
-<strong>kern_return_t   thread_sample</strong>
-                <strong>(thread_act_t</strong>                     <var>sample_thread</var>,
-                 <strong>mach_port_make_send_t</strong>               <var>reply_port</var><strong>);</strong>
-</pre>
-<h3>PARAMETERS</h3>
-<dl>
-<p>
-<dt> <var>sample_thread</var> 
-<dd>
-[in thread send right]
-Thread whose PC is to be sampled
-<p>
-<dt> <var>reply_port</var> 
-<dd>
-[in sample receive (to be converted to send) right]
-Port to which PC 
-sample buffers are sent.  A value of <strong>MACH_PORT_NULL</strong> stops PC 
-sampling for the thread.
-</dl>
-<h3>DESCRIPTION</h3>
-<p>
-The <strong>thread_sample</strong> function causes the program counter
-(PC) of the specified 
-<var>sample_thread</var> to be sampled periodically (whenever the thread happens to be 
-running at the time of the kernel's "hardclock" interrupt). 
-The set of PC sample 
-values obtained are saved in buffers which are sent to the specified
-<var>reply_port</var> in 
-<strong>receive_samples</strong> messages.
-<h3>RETURN VALUES</h3>
-<p>
-Only generic errors apply.
