[PATCH v2 4/4] selftests: KVM: use dirty logging to check if page stats work correctly

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

 



When dirty logging is enabled, KVM will remap all accessed pages in
NPT/EPT at 4K. This property could be used to check if
the page stats metrics work properly in KVM mmu. At the same time, this
logic might be used the other way around: using page stats to verify if
dirty logging really splits all huge pages. Moreover, when dirty logging is
disabled, KVM zaps corresponding SPTEs and we could check whether the large
pages come back when guest touches the pages again.

So add page stats checking in dirty logging performance selftest. In
particular, add checks in three locations:
 - just after vm is created;
 - after populating memory into vm but before enabling dirty logging;
 - finish dirty logging but before disabling it;
 - behind the final iteration after disabling dirty logging.

Tested using commands:
 - ./dirty_log_perf_test -s anonymous_hugetlb_1gb
 - ./dirty_log_perf_test -s anonymous_hugetlb_2mb
 - ./dirty_log_perf_test -s anonymous_thp
