 The instance node also accepts event nodes so that each instance
 can customize its event tracing.
 
+With the trigger action and kprobes, you can trace function-graph while
+a function is called. For example, this will trace all function calls in
+the pci_proc_init()::
+
+  ftrace {
+        tracing_on = 0
+        tracer = function_graph
+        event.kprobes {

 This boot-time tracing also supports ftrace kernel parameters via boot
 config.
 For example, following kernel parameters::
