[PATCHv2 0/9] KVM in-guest performance monitoring

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

 



This patchset exposes an emulated version 2 architectural performance
monitoring unit to KVM guests.  The PMU is emulated using perf_events,
so the host kernel can multiplex host-wide, host-user, and the
guest on available resources.

The patches are against next branch on kvm.git.

If you want to try running perf in a guest you need to apply the patch
below to qemu-kvm and use -cpu host on qemu command line. But DO NOT
TRY those patches without applying [1][2] to the host kernel first.
Don't tell me I didn't warn you!

Changelog:
 v1->v2
  - put index into struct kvm_pmc instead of calculating it
  - use locked version of bitops
  - inject pmi from irq work if vcpu was not in a guest mode during NMI
  - providing stub for perf_get_x86_pmu_capability() for !PERF_EVENTS

Avi Kivity (6):
  KVM: Expose kvm_lapic_local_deliver()
  KVM: Add generic RDPMC support
  KVM: SVM: Intercept RDPMC
  KVM: VMX: Intercept RDPMC
  KVM: x86 emulator: fix RDPMC privilege check
  KVM: x86 emulator: implement RDPMC (0F 33)

Gleb Natapov (3):
  KVM: Expose a version 2 architectural PMU to a guests
  perf: expose perf capability to other modules.
  KVM: Expose the architectural performance monitoring CPUID leaf
