Tracing - how can I know which method was called

Hi,
I added a network event trace thus:
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/net_dev_xmit/enable
Afterwards I see many lines with net_dev_xmit in /sys/kernel/debug/tracing.
Now, looking in the source code, I see that there are two calls to
trace_net_dev_xmit() in
dev_hard_start_xmit(). These invocations are identical.
see:
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/net/core/dev.c?v=2.6.37
Is there a way in which I can make the log say which of these
invocations was called ?
(without changing the dev_hard_start_xmit() method).
rgs,
Kevin
