You mean only tracing one function and its tree of calls (by defining a kind of root of tracing?) as suggested Arjan? Yeah, that would be great.
To define it through trace_filter, perhaps we could use the sign "^" before a function name to say: "all calls which starts with this function". I hope that wouldn't confuse with the real sense that "^" has in regular expressions.
