[PATCH 1/2] locking: Add lock contention tracepoints

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This adds two new lock contention tracepoints like below:

 * lock:contention_begin
 * lock:contention_end

The lock:contention_begin takes a flags argument to classify locks.  I
found it useful to identify what kind of locks it's tracing like if
it's spinning or sleeping, reader-writer lock, real-time, and per-cpu.

Move tracepoint definitions into mutex.c so that we can use them
without lockdep.
