Hi,

I am trying to use perf lock and am not sure if
the results are correct (the bad rate is 98 %).

Is this expected behavior ?

root@linux-test ~# perf --version
perf version 3.12.0

root@linux-test ~# perf lock record cat /etc/issue
Arch Linux \r (\l)

[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.356 MB perf.data (~15533 samples) ]
root@linux-test ~# perf lock report
                Name   acquired  contended total wait (ns)   max wait (ns)   
min wait (ns)

        &cpuctx_lock          0          0               0               0      
         0
 &sig->cred_guard...          0          0               0               0      
         0

=== output for debug===

bad: 153, total: 155
bad rate: 98.709677 %
histogram of events caused bad sequence
    acquire: 1
   acquired: 0
  contended: 0
    release: 152

I am using the wireless-testing kernel:
root@linux-test ~# uname -a
Linux linux-test 3.13.0-wl-debug #197 SMP PREEMPT Tue Jan 21 03:19:43 IST 2014 
x86_64 GNU/Linux

lockdep is enabled:
root@linux-test ~# zgrep -i lockdep /proc/config.gz
CONFIG_LOCKDEP_SUPPORT=y
CONFIG_LOCKDEP=y
# CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP is not set
