Just input a thought for support both host and guest machines, seems to
me, a feasibe solution is CoreSight can extend its capability to trace
below system registers together:
- VTTBR_EL2.vmid
- CONTEXTIDR_EL2
- CONTEXTIDR_EL1
So:
VTTBR_EL2.vmid == 0: host machine, CONTEXTIDR_EL2 is for tracing PID
VTTBR_EL2.vmid != 0: guest machine, CONTEXTIDR_EL1 is for tracing PID
So far we only can trace either CONTEXTIDR_EL2 (and it's even a bit
mess that we save CONTEXTIDR_EL2 into 'elem->context.vmid') or
CONTEXTIDR_EL1, this is the main reason it's hard for perf to
distinguish host and guest. I know you might have discussed this yet,
here I just record some ideas in case later we can review it.
Thanks,
Leo
