A future commit will want to easily read a vCPU's TSC offset,
so we store it in struct kvm_arch_vcpu_arch for easy access.

vmx_read_tsc_offset has a bug when running nested VMs. It should really be:
if (is_guest_mode(vcpu))
return to_vmx(vcpu)->nested.vmcs01_tsc_offset;
else
return vmcs_read64(TSC_OFFSET);
Perhaps a better name woulf be "vmx_get_l1_tsc_offset."
In any case, this does not seem consistent with vcpu->arch.tsc_offset.

I agree, but doesn't this patch fix the bug too?

Hmmm. Yes, I think it does. With this patch series,
vcpu->arch.tsc_offset appears to contain L1's TSC offset (perhaps
making vmx->nested.vmcs01_tsc_offset redundant).
However, this unfortunately limits the newly added functionality to
merging host and *L1* guest traces. It doesn't work with L2 (or
deeper) guests. Or perhaps I'm missing something?

You can merge L1/L2 first and then host/L1.

Doesn't that assume you can run the merge program in L1?

You only need the TSC offset, but we should make sure that L0
tracepoints contain enough information to figure out the L0->L2 TSC
offsets (they are the values in VMCS02).
That said, how would you get the trace from L1 if you don't have access
to it?

I'm thinking about the case where you want to merge traces from L0 and
L2. If the user code in L0 always knew the TSC offset of the current
VMCS, rather than the TSC offset of the L1 VMCS, this would be
trivial, regardless of the nature of L1.

Otherwise, the kernel panics when kvm_create_vm_debugfs()
fails before assigning this pointer.

Two stubs are added:
o kvm_arch_has_vcpu_debugfs(): must return true if the arch
supports creating debugfs entries in the vcpu debugfs dir
(which will be implemented by the next commit)
o kvm_arch_create_vcpu_debugfs(): code that creates debugfs
entries in the vcpu debugfs dir
For x86, this commit introduces a new file to avoid growing
arch/x86/kvm/x86.c even more.

This commit adds the ability for archs to export
per-vcpu information via a new per-vcpu dir in
the VM's debugfs directory.
If kvm_arch_has_vcpu_debugfs() returns true, then KVM
will create a vcpu dir for each vCPU in the VM's
debugfs directory. Then kvm_arch_create_vcpu_debugfs()
is responsible for populating each vcpu directory
with arch specific entries.
The per-vcpu path in debugfs will look like:
/sys/kernel/debug/kvm/29162-10/vcpu0
/sys/kernel/debug/kvm/29162-10/vcpu1
This is all arch specific for now because the only
user of this interface (x86) wants to export x86-specific
per-vcpu information to user-space.

This commit exports the following information to
user-space via the newly created per-vcpu debugfs
directory:
- TSC offset (as a signed number)
- TSC scaling ratio
- TSC scaling ratio fractinal bits
The original intention of this commit was to
export only the TSC offset, but the TSC scaling
information is exported for completeness.
We need to retrieve the TSC offset from user-space
in order to support the merging of host and guest
traces in trace-cmd. Today, we use the kvm_write_tsc_offset
tracepoint, but it has a number of problems (mainly,
it requires a running VM to be rebooted, ftrace setup,
and also tracepoints are not supposed to be ABIs).
The merging of host and guest traces is explained
in more detail in this thread:
[Qemu-devel] [RFC] host and guest kernel trace merging
https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-03/msg00887.html
This commit creates the following files in debugfs:
/sys/kernel/debug/kvm/66828-10/vcpu0/tsc-offset
/sys/kernel/debug/kvm/66828-10/vcpu0/tsc-scaling-ratio
/sys/kernel/debug/kvm/66828-10/vcpu0/tsc-scaling-ratio-frac-bits
The last two are only created if TSC scaling is supported.

I've tested this patch on an AMD machine with TSC scaling, so I'm
pushing it shortly to kvm/queue.

Thanks for the testing! Btw, I don't mind letting it sit on the
list for a few days for review (well, no submitter should mind
this).
