Re: [RFC PATCH v3 1/1] mmap_lock: add tracepoints around mmap_lock acquisition

From: Axel Rasmussen
Date: Wed Sep 09 2020 - 12:35:27 EST


Hi Yafang,

I've felt a bit stuck on this, as tracepoints alone don't quite
address my use case (performance overhead is too high), but I haven't
been able to come up with a palatable approach which does. I was
planning to conduct an experiment on Google production servers, to
provide real-world evidence of why this would be useful.

However, the tracepoints alone are still useful, and it sounds like
that may be enough for your needs? I'm happy to send a version of this
which only adds tracepoints this week. I think at least that subset is
uncontroversial.
