Look at ktrace(1), kdump(1).  You will have to build a kernel
with tracing:

   # 
   # KTRACE enables the system-call tracing facility ktrace(2).
   #
   options         KTRACE                  #kernel tracing

From question in your other posting, perhaps you've already
figured this out.

good luck,
