'perf kvm stat report/record' generates a statistical analysis of KVM events and can be used to analyze guest exit reasons. This series tries to add stat support on arm64 (Port perf-kvm-stat to arm64 - this is already supported on x86). "record" enables recording of two pair of tracepoints: - "kvm:kvm_entry" and "kvm:kvm_exit" - "kvm:kvm_trap_enter" and "kvm:kvm_trap_exit" "report" reports statistical analysis of guest exit&trap events. To record kvm events on the host: # perf kvm stat record -a To report kvm VM EXIT events: # perf kvm stat report --event=vmexit To report kvm VM TRAP (synchronous exceptions) events: # perf kvm stat report --event=trap More information can be found at tools/perf/Documentation/perf-kvm.txt. * Patch 1-2 touch KVM/ARM side, with #1 is cleanup and #2 is preparation for perf-kvm-stat support. * Patch 3-5 touch perf side. * Patch 3 adds support for get_cpuid() function on arm64. *RFC!* * Patch 4 adds support for perf-kvm-stat on arm64, with VM-EXIT events. * Patch 5 adds support to report TRAP-EVENT events. Any suggestions, comments and test results will be appreciated.
