I understood what you were speaking. I mean, perf generic codes operate perf_event
one by one. At low layer, we just know one perf_event before calling hypercall to
vmexit to host kernel.

Ah.

We might fix that by having the perf ops work on guest memory, and add a commit that transfers them to the host. But this is complicated and can be left for later.
