tracing/lockdep: report the time waited for a lock
While trying to optimize the new lock on reiserfs to replace
the bkl, I find the lock tracing very useful though it lacks
something important for performance (and latency) instrumentation:
the time a task waits for a lock.
That's what this patch implements:
bash-4816 [000] 202.652815: lock_contended: lock_contended: &sb->s_type->i_mutex_key
bash-4816 [000] 202.652819: lock_acquired: &rq->lock (0.000 us)
<...>-4787 [000] 202.652825: lock_acquired: &rq->lock (0.000 us)
<...>-4787 [000] 202.652829: lock_acquired: &rq->lock (0.000 us)
bash-4816 [000] 202.652833: lock_acquired: &sb->s_type->i_mutex_key (16.005 us)
As shown above, the "lock acquired" field is followed by the time
it has been waiting for the lock. Usually, a lock contended entry
is followed by a near lock_acquired entry with a non-zero time waited.
