Subject: [PATCH v3 1/2] perf/kvm: Port perf kvm to powerpc
From: Srikar Dronamraju <srikar@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>
perf kvm can be used to analyze guest exit reasons. This support already
exists in x86. Hence, porting it to powerpc.
- To trace KVM events :
perf kvm stat record
If many guests are running, we can track for a specific guest by using
--pid as in : perf kvm stat record --pid <pid>
- To see the results :
perf kvm stat report
The result shows the number of exits (from the guest context to
host/hypervisor context) grouped by their respective exit reasons with
their frequency.
This patch makes use of the guest exit reasons available in
"trace_book3s.h". It records on two already available tracepoints :
"kvm_hv:kvm_guest_exit" and "kvm_hv:kvm_guest_enter".
Note : This patch has a dependency on the patch "kvm/powerpc: Export
kvm exit reasons" which exports the KVM exit reasons through the uapi.
Here is a sample o/p:
# pgrep qemu
19378
60515
2 Guests are running on the host.
# 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
Analyze events for pid(s) 60515, all VCPUs:

Patch has a dependency on : https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/469839/
which exports the exit reasons to perf through uapi.
Changes:
- Original series split into two patchsets now : perf and powerpc
side changes.
