[PATCH v7 2/2] misc: Add a mechanism to detect stalls on guest vCPUs
From: Sebastian Ene
Date: Tue Jun 21 2022 - 04:04:55 EST
This driver creates per-cpu hrtimers which are required to do the
periodic 'pet' operation. On a conventional watchdog-core driver, the
userspace is responsible for delivering the 'pet' events by writing to
the particular /dev/watchdogN node. In this case we require a strong
thread affinity to be able to account for lost time on a per vCPU.
This part of the driver is the 'frontend' which is reponsible for
delivering the periodic 'pet' events, configuring the virtual peripheral
and listening for cpu hotplug events. The other part of the driver
handles the peripheral emulation and this part accounts for lost time by
looking at the /proc/{}/task/{}/stat entries and is located here:

+ Detect CPU locks on a kvm virtual machine. This driver relies on
+ the hrtimers which are CPU-binded to do the 'pet' operation. When a
+ vCPU has to do a 'pet', it exits the guest through MMIO write and
+ the backend driver takes into account the lost ticks for this
+ particular CPU.
+ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
+ module will be called vcpu_stall_detector.
