While perf-lock currently reports both the total wait time and the number of contentions, it doesn't explicitly show the average wait time. Having this value immediately in the report can be quite useful when looking into performance issues. Furthermore, allowing report to sort by averages is another handy feature to have - and thus do not only print the value, but add it to the lock_stat structure.

SYNOPSIS

|
|
|

'perf lock record <command>' records lock events

produces the file "perf.data" which contains tracing

results of lock events.
|
|
|
|
'perf lock report' reports statistical data.
|
|
|
|
'perf lock script' shows raw lock events.
|
|
|
|
'perf lock info' shows metadata like threads or addresses
|
|
of lock instances.
