'perf kvm stat report/record' generates a statistical analysis of KVM events and can be used to analyze guest exit reasons. This patch tries to add stat support on riscv. Map the return value of trace_kvm_exit() to the specific cause of the exception, and export it to userspace. It records on two available KVM tracepoints for riscv: "kvm:kvm_entry" and "kvm:kvm_exit", and reports statistical data which includes events handles time, samples, and so on. Cross compiling perf in X86 environment may encounter issues with missing libraries and tools. Suggest compiling nativly in RISC-V environment Simple tests go below: # ./perf kvm record -e "kvm:kvm_entry" -e "kvm:kvm_exit" Lowering default frequency rate from 4000 to 2500. Please consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate.
