lockstat: measure lock bouncing
__acquire | lock _____ | \ | __contended | | | wait | _______/ |/ | __acquired | __release | unlock We measure acquisition and contention bouncing. This is done by recording a cpu stamp in each lock instance. Contention bouncing requires the cpu stamp to be set on acquisition. Hence we move __acquired into the generic path. __acquired is then used to measure acquisition bouncing by comparing the current cpu with the old stamp before replacing it. __contended is used to measure contention bouncing (only useful for preemptable locks) [akpm@linux-foundation.org: cleanups] Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Acked-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
