[PATCH v2 3/3] perf lock contention: Support filters for different aggregation
From: Namhyung Kim
Date: Thu Feb 02 2023 - 21:13:49 EST
It'd be useful to filter other than the current aggregation mode. For
example, users may want to see callstacks for specific locks only. Or
they may want tasks from a certain callstack.
The tracepoints already collected the information but it needs to check
the condition again when processing the event. And it needs to change
BPF to allow the key combinations.
The lock contentions on 'rcu_state' spinlock can be monitored:
$ sudo perf lock con -abv -L rcu_state sleep 1
...
contended total wait max wait avg wait type caller
