This new Lockmeter supports i386, ia64, alpha, mips64, and sparc64. A new lockstat 1.4.2 is also available, although the previous lockstat version 1.4.1 (and 1.4) remain compatible with this latest Lockmeter. The Alpha port is hopefully now working again, thanks to Peter Rival at DEC/Compaq. The ia64 port has been tested as an SMP kernel on a uniprocessor Big Sur and is presumed to support SMP hardware. (My SMP testing will be forthcoming.) To build for ia64, the base 2.4.0-test8 source is first patched by linux-2.4.0-test8-ia64-000913.diff (available officially at http://www.kernel.org and unofficially at http://oss.sgi.com/projects/lockmeter/download), then patched with the basic Lockmeter 1.4.3 patch, then patched yet again by a small Lockmeter 1.4.3 "ia64_0913" patch). The sparc64 additions are courtesy of Anton Blanchard at Linuxcare. The mips64 portion of the patch applies against the CVS kernel source available at http://oss.sgi.com/projects/linux-scalability/ as of October 2, presumptively at 2.4.0-test8-pre1. Work is in progress to further reduce the performance impact of Lockmetering. Other work is in progress to narrow the printf column width of Lockstat.

We already have a ccNUMA port for the SGI mips64 machines, which is part of Linux 2.4. Linux does not have the most up to date copy of the architecture specific parts of the mips64 source, the up to date tree is maintained on oss.sgi.com with cvs access. Kanoj
