| 27 | Every caller to using kernel's mutex is displayed on every line. |
| 28 | |
| 29 | First portion of lines show the lock acquiring data, showing the |
| 30 | amount of time it took to acquired given lock. |
| 31 | |
| 32 | 'Caller' - symbol acquiring the mutex |
| 33 | 'Average Spin' - average time to acquire the mutex |
| 34 | 'Count' - number of times mutex was acquired |
| 35 | 'Max spin' - maximum time to acquire the mutex |
| 36 | 'Total spin' - total time spent in acquiring the mutex |
| 37 | |
| 38 | Second portion of lines show the lock holding data, showing the |
| 39 | amount of time it took to hold given lock. |
| 40 | |
| 41 | 'Caller' - symbol holding the mutex |
| 42 | 'Average Hold' - average time mutex was held |
| 43 | 'Count' - number of times mutex was held |
| 44 | 'Max hold' - maximum time mutex was held |
| 45 | 'Total hold' - total time spent in holding the mutex |
| 46 | |
| 47 | This works by tracing mutex_lock/unlock kprobes, updating the |
| 48 | lock stats in maps and processing them in the python part. |

| 51 | An -i option can be used to display stats in interval (5 seconds in example below): |
