I just realized the above three lines are unnecessary and should be
deleted, please ignore them and I will fix them in my next patch.

The logic above is a bit flawed. It should be:
// Contention is still going on, with a new owner
// (current task). `otdata` should be updated accordingly.
else {
(otdata->count)--;
// If ctx[1] is not 0, the current task
terminates lock waiting
// without acquiring it. Owner is not changed.
if (ctx[1] == 0) {
u32 i = 0;
otdata->pid = pid;
otdata->timestamp = timestamp;
entries =
bpf_map_lookup_elem(&owner_stacks_entries, &i);
if (!entries) {
bpf_map_update_elem(&contention_owner_tracing,
&(pelem->lock), otdata, BPF_ANY);
goto
contention_end_skip_owner_callstack;
}
for (i = 0; i < (u32)max_stack; i++)
entries[i] = 0x0;
bpf_get_task_stack(bpf_get_current_task_btf(), entries,
max_stack *
sizeof(unsigned long),
0);
bpf_map_update_elem(&contention_owner_stacks,
&(pelem->lock),
entries, BPF_ANY);
}
bpf_map_update_elem(&contention_owner_tracing,
&(pelem->lock), otdata, BPF_ANY);
}
I will update this in my next patch.
