those obscure readability in the typical usecases, but you can get them
anytime via using this existing trace_options runtime switch:

echo funcgraph-proc > /debug/tracing/trace_options

resulting in traces like this:

# CPU TASK/PID OVERHEAD/DURATION FUNCTION CALLS
# | | | | | | | |
------------------------------------------
0) distccd-28400 => cc1-30212
------------------------------------------

0) cc1-30212 | 0.270 us | }
0) cc1-30212 | | __do_fault() {
0) cc1-30212 | | filemap_fault() {
0) cc1-30212 | | find_lock_page() {
0) cc1-30212 | 0.453 us | find_get_page();
0) cc1-30212 | 0.997 us | }
0) cc1-30212 | | PageUptodate() {
0) cc1-30212 | 0.266 us | constant_test_bit();
0) cc1-30212 | 0.799 us | }
0) cc1-30212 | 0.379 us | mark_page_accessed();
0) cc1-30212 | 3.275 us | }
0) cc1-30212 | 0.276 us | _spin_lock();
0) cc1-30212 | 0.389 us | page_add_file_rmap();
0) cc1-30212 | | unlock_page() {
0) cc1-30212 | 0.266 us | page_waitqueue();
0) cc1-30212 | 0.381 us | __wake_up_bit();
0) cc1-30212 | 1.442 us | }
0) cc1-30212 | 6.897 us | }
0) cc1-30212 |+ 11.663 us | }
0) cc1-30212 | | up_read() {
0) cc1-30212 | 0.280 us | _spin_lock_irqsave();

Thanks,
