	Ok, I'm already running function tracer.

	I did the following:

echo ftrace > /debug/tracing/current_tracer
echo print-parent > /debug/tracing/iter_ctrl

	Is it enough to get what you suggest?

	If so, I'll leave it enabled:

echo 1 > /debug/tracing/tracing_enabled

	and stop and get the data just when the problem happens... then
I should know what I should grep, what's relevant.

	thank you again.
