[PATCH 2/4] perf lock contention: Show full callstack with -v option

From: Namhyung Kim
Date: Mon Sep 12 2022 - 01:53:38 EST


Currently it shows a caller function for each entry, but users need to see
the full call stacks sometimes. Use -v/--verbose option to do that.

# perf lock con -a -b -v sleep 3
Looking at the vmlinux_path (8 entries long)
symsrc__init: cannot get elf header.
Using /proc/kcore for kernel data
Using /proc/kallsyms for symbols
contended total wait max wait avg wait type caller
