[PATCH v1 4/5] perf,kvm/arm64: Add stat support on arm64

From: Zenghui Yu
Date: Wed Jun 12 2019 - 05:19:35 EST


'perf kvm stat report/record' generates a statistical analysis of KVM
events and can be used to analyze guest exit reasons. This patch tries
to add stat support on arm64.

We have a mapping between guest's "exit_code" and "exit_reason" which
already exists under arch/arm64/include/asm/ (kvm_arm_exception_type),
and we've used it to report guest's exit type through trace_kvm_exit().
Copy kvm_arm_exception_type into aarch64_guest_exits.h, thus export it
to userspace.

It records on two available KVM tracepoints for arm64: "kvm:kvm_entry"
and "kvm:kvm_exit", and reports statistical data which includes events
handles time, samples, and so on.

A simple test go below:

# pgrep qemu
6039
9937

# ./tools/perf/perf kvm stat record -p 6039
[ perf record: Woken up 3 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 15.629 MB perf.data.guest (199063 samples) ]

# ./tools/perf/perf kvm stat report --event=vmexit

Analyze events for all VMs, all VCPUs:

VM-EXIT Samples Samples% Time% Min Time Max Time Avg time

TRAP 49040 97.15% 100.00% 2.60us 4072.98us 3431.60us ( +- 0.17% )
IRQ 1437 2.85% 0.00% 0.90us 24.56us 2.06us ( +- 1.37% )

Total Samples:50477, Total events handled time:168288630.04us.
