I believe the answer is clock.c  sorry for the trouble.

Hello,

 Can someone tell me where in the kernel, the ticks per instruction are 
updated for a profiled process?
[The profil() system call  takes in a buffer from libc and depending on 
whether curproc refers to the profiled process, it updates the ticks spent 

executing the process.].

thanks
