+Single thread tracing
+---------------------
+
+By writing into /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_pid you can trace a
+single thread. For example:
+
+# cat /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_pid
+no pid
+# echo 3111 > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_pid
+# cat /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_pid
+3111
+# echo function > /debug/tracing/current_tracer
+# cat /debug/tracing/trace | head
+ # tracer: function
+ #
+ # TASK-PID CPU# TIMESTAMP FUNCTION
+ # | | | | |

+If you want to trace a function when executing, you could use
+something like this simple program:
+
+#include <stdio.h>
