Thanks for the report. I've noticed that and also found this error:
In file included from util/lock-contention.c:4:0:
util/lock-contention.h:192:19: error: no previous prototype for 'pop_owner_stack_trace' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
struct lock_stat *pop_owner_stack_trace(struct lock_contention *con)
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
util/lock-contention.h: In function 'pop_owner_stack_trace':
util/lock-contention.h:192:65: error: unused parameter 'con' [-Werror=unused-parameter]
struct lock_stat *pop_owner_stack_trace(struct lock_contention *con)
^~~
Removed this series from tmp.perf-tools-next.
Thanks,
