Subject: [PATCH 7/8] lockdep: Expose slab pool telemetry in /proc/lockdep_stats and initcalls
Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2026 21:58:39 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260826-lockdep-memblock-v1-v1-7-e2db855391ec@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260826-lockdep-memblock-v1-v1-0-e2db855391ec@gmail.com>
Extend lockdep observability to track slab allocation dynamics:
0. In /proc/lockdep_stats, display total reserved slabs, used slabs,
free slabs (headroom), and a per-consumer slab breakdown (lock_classes,
direct deps, dependency chains, chain hlocks, stack traces).
1. In lockdep.c, add lockdep_report_stage() hooks registered across
initcall milestones (core, postcore, arch, subsys, fs, device, late)
to log slab consumption progress throughout kernel initialization.
