it's all in debugfs so no stable interface worries. Not much has changed 
since we last posted it to lkml. Posting the full patchset is 
impractical as it's in excess of 100 commits (but we did post various 
versions of it) - you can pick up the latest from:

   http://people.redhat.com/mingo/sched-devel.git/README

check out kernel/trace/. Usage: check out 
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/README :-)
