They are helpful and I appreciate SGI keeping it maintained with the recent kernel versions. On to my question... I know 2.4.10 was just released a couple days ago so it might be asking a lot for an ETA on the lockmeter port, but I have to ask. I tried applying the 2.4.9 lockmeter diff to 2.4.10. It looks like the /proc interface to lockmeter has changed with 2.4.10? I could try to figure it out but I was wondering if anyone knows when a patch might be available? I volunteer to Beta test anything anyone else might have put together ; ) I am porting a dcache_lock patch to 2.4.10 and it would be nice to post some lockmeter numbers when I am ready. By the Way - Is there a way to print lockstat results in the order of contention? It would be nice to see the worst contenders right at the top. Anyone written a script to do that? Thanks.

I replied to Hanna, but I ought to reply to the broader mailing lists, too. I'll try to get to the 2.4.10 port in the next couple of days. I haven't looked at 2.4.10 to see what hoops I need to jump through.
