Vanilla kernel, those patches on top, built as described to
Steven in the previous mail (.config attached there, built
natively on ppc64le ABIv2, mentioned tool versions)

make vmlinux, make modules, build initrd
qemu-system-ppc64 -no-reboot -enable-kvm -m 20480 -kernel vmlinux
  -initrd initrd.gz -append console=hvc0 -nographic -vga none
inside:
cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
mkdir instances/Foo
cd instances/Foo
echo function > current_tracer

current_tracer holds "nop" or "function"; the transition is accompanied 
by heavy binary patching. When the function tracer is active, almost all
calls go through ftrace_caller. This should be enough for a start; the
proper stack frame layout details for the tracer functions still remain
to be checked...
