[RFC PATCH v4 35/39] KVM: arm64: Add an userspace API to stop a VCPU profiling

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Add the KVM_ARM_VCPU_SPE_CTRL(KVM_ARM_VCPU_SPE_STOP) VCPU attribute to
allow userspace to request that KVM disables profiling for that VCPU. The
ioctl does nothing yet.

 Request initialization of the Statistical Profiling Extension for this VCPU.
 Must be done after initializaing the in-kernel irqchip and after setting the
 Profiling Buffer management interrupt number for the VCPU.
+
+4.3 ATTRIBUTE: KVM_ARM_VCPU_SPE_STOP
+------------------------------------
+
+:Parameters: in kvm_device_attr.addr the address to the flag that specifies
+             what KVM should do when the guest enables profiling
+
+The flag must be exactly one of:
+
+- KVM_ARM_VCPU_SPE_STOP_TRAP: trap all register accesses and ignore the guest
+  trying to enable profiling.
+- KVM_ARM_VCPU_SPE_STOP_EXIT: exit to userspace when the guest tries to enable
+  profiling.
+- KVM_ARM_VCPU_SPE_RESUME: resume profiling, if it was previously stopped using
+  this attribute.
+
+If KVM detects that a vcpu is trying to run with SPE enabled when
+KVM_ARM_VCPU_STOP_EXIT is set, KVM_RUN will return without entering the guest
+with kvm_run.exit_reason equal to KVM_EXIT_FAIL_ENTRY, and the fail_entry struct
+will be zeroed.
+
+Returns:
+
+	 =======  ============================================
+	 -EAGAIN  SPE not initialized
+	 -EFAULT  Error accessing the flag
+	 -EINVAL  Invalid flag
+	 -ENXIO   SPE not supported or not properly configured
+	 =======  ============================================
+
+Request that KVM disables SPE for the given vcpu. This can be useful for
+migration, which relies on tracking dirty pages by write-protecting memory, but
+breaks SPE in the guest as KVM does not handle buffer stage 2 faults.
+
+The attribute must be set after SPE has been initialized successfully. It can be
+set multiple times, with the latest value overwritting the previous one.
