    powerpc64: port of the function graph tracer · 6794c782
    Steven Rostedt authored
    This is a port of the function graph tracer that was written by
    Frederic Weisbecker for the x86.
    
    This only works for PPC64 at the moment and only for static tracing.
    PPC32 and dynamic function graph tracing support will come later.
    
    The trace produces a visual calling of functions:
    
     # tracer: function_graph
     #
     # CPU  DURATION                  FUNCTION CALLS
     # |     |   |                     |   |   |   |
