I don't know anything about what lockdown is, but in terms of blktrace,
it is a way to trace meta data associated with IO. It'll tell you things
like "task T wants to {read,write} on device D, at offset X, and of size
Y". For passthrough IO, it'll also dump the CDB. There's never any
actual data traced.
