Subject[PATCH]lock_stat: Adding "nr_contender" and "max_contender" to show the degree of contention on ticket spinlock
From
The cost of spin lock operations is increased as the number of threads
who wait for the spinlock increased. We are able to record the number
of threads which includes the holder and waiters for the ticket
spinlock when the contention happened (The spinlock is not free when a
thread wants to lock it). So, we introduces two parameters to
lock_stat: "nr_contender" and "max_contender".
nr_contender is the sum of the number of holder and waiters when
contention happened. So, "nr_contender / contentions" represent the
average degree of contention.
Max_contender is the biggest number of holder and waiters when
contention happened. So, max_contender represents the highest degree
of contention.
