From: Shannon Zhao <shannon.zhao@xxxxxxxxxx> This patchset adds guest PMU support for KVM on ARM64. It takes trap-and-emulate approach. When guest wants to monitor one event, it will be trapped by KVM and KVM will call perf_event API to create a perf event and call relevant perf_event APIs to get the count value of event. Use perf to test this patchset in guest. When using "perf list", it shows the list of the hardware events and hardware cache events perf supports. Then use "perf stat -e EVENT" to monitor some event. For example, use "perf stat -e cycles" to count cpu cycles and "perf stat -e cache-misses" to count cache misses. This can be fetched from [1] and the relevant QEMU version for test can be fetched from [2].
