Subject: [PATCH v3 2/2] perf/kvm: Support HCALL events
Date: Fri, 8 May 2015 06:37:46 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1431047266-6206-2-git-send-email-hemant@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1431047266-6206-1-git-send-email-hemant@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
powerpc provides hcall events that also provide insights into guest
behaviour. Enhance perf kvm to record and analyze hcall events.
- To trace hcall events :
perf kvm stat record
- To show the results :
perf kvm stat report --event=hcall
The result shows the number of hypervisor calls from the guest grouped
by their respective reasons displayed with the frequency.
This patch makes use of two additional tracepoints "kvm_hv:kvm_hcall_enter"
and "kvm_hv:kvm_hcall_exit". It uses the pSeries hypervisor codes
exported through uapi to classify the hcalls into their respective reasons.
Note : This patch has a dependency on "kvm/powerpc: Export HCALL reason
codes" which exports HCALL reasons through uapi.
# pgrep qemu
A sample output :
19378
60515
2 VMs running.
# perf kvm stat record -a
^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 4.153 MB perf.data.guest (39624 samples) ]
# perf kvm stat report -p 60515 --event=hcall
Analyze events for pid(s) 60515, all VCPUs:
