Well once you know the functions that are being called (running your test
case with the IPI trace events), then you can get the timings of those same
functions by:

 # cd /sys/kernel/tracing
 # echo '<space-delimited-list-of-functions>' > set_ftrace_filter
 # echo function_graph > current_tracer

Then the function graph will give you those timings.
