On the kernel side, in addition to the syscall futex, I would really like to see what
happens in the scheduler, mainly the wait/wakeup tracepoints. This can be added by using:

lttng enable-event -k 'sched_*'

This should help us confirm whether we indeed have a situation where queued wake ups
happen to wake up a wait happening only later, which is unexpected by the current liburcu
userspace code.

It would be even better if you can share the binary trace, because then it's easy to
load it in trace compass, cut away time ranges that don't matter, and lots of other
useful stuff.

Thanks,
