Hello,
This patchset adds a couple of filters to perf lock contention command.
The -Y/--type-filter is to filter by lock types like spinlock or mutex.
$ sudo ./perf lock con -ab -Y spinlock -E 3 -- ./perf bench sched messaging
# Running 'sched/messaging' benchmark:
# 20 sender and receiver processes per group
# 10 groups == 400 processes run
Total time: 0.167 [sec]
contended total wait max wait avg wait type caller
11 669.31 us 107.17 us 60.85 us spinlock remove_wait_queue+0x14
10 586.85 us 87.62 us 58.68 us spinlock prepare_to_wait+0x27
186 497.36 us 12.94 us 2.67 us spinlock try_to_wake_up+0x1f5
For the same workload, you can see the rwlock results only like below.
$ sudo ./perf lock con -ab -Y rwlock -E 3 -- ./perf bench sched messaging
# Running 'sched/messaging' benchmark:
# 20 sender and receiver processes per group
# 10 groups == 400 processes run
Total time: 0.171 [sec]
contended total wait max wait avg wait type caller
20 142.11 us 17.10 us 7.11 us rwlock:W do_exit+0x36d
3 26.49 us 12.04 us 8.83 us rwlock:W release_task+0x6e
5 12.46 us 5.12 us 2.49 us rwlock:R do_wait+0x8b
The -L/--lock-filter is to filter by lock address or name. You can use
the existing -l/--lock-addr option to get the info.
$ sudo ./perf lock con -abl -- ./perf bench sched messaging 2>&1 | grep tasklist_lock
25 39.78 us 16.51 us 1.59 us ffffffff9d006080 tasklist_lock
And use it with -L option like below.
$ sudo ./perf lock con -ab -L tasklist_lock -- ./perf bench sched messaging 2>&1
# Running 'sched/messaging' benchmark:
# 20 sender and receiver processes per group
# 10 groups == 400 processes run
Total time: 0.174 [sec]
contended total wait max wait avg wait type caller
22 227.18 us 24.16 us 10.33 us rwlock:W do_exit+0x36d
3 26.12 us 18.03 us 8.71 us rwlock:W release_task+0x6e
Passing the address is supported too.
$ sudo ./perf lock con -ab -L ffffffff9d006080 -- ./perf bench sched messaging 2>&1
# Running 'sched/messaging' benchmark:
# 20 sender and receiver processes per group
# 10 groups == 400 processes run
Total time: 0.190 [sec]
contended total wait max wait avg wait type caller
28 276.62 us 16.90 us 9.88 us rwlock:W do_exit+0x36d
4 22.36 us 7.04 us 5.59 us rwlock:R do_wait+0x8b
2 10.51 us 5.38 us 5.25 us rwlock:W release_task+0x6e
You can get it from 'perf/lock-filter-v1' branch in

Thanks,
