            Bug ID: 209831
           Summary: Time spent on behalf of vcpu is not accounted as guest
                    time
           Product: Virtualization
           Version: unspecified
    Kernel Version: 5.9.0-2.gb1f22f7-default
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: kvm
          Assignee: virtualization_kvm@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
          Reporter: mkoutny@suse.com
        Regression: No

## Reproduction steps

1) Start a Qemu/KVM guest
2) On the host, start watching /proc/stat

> while sleep 1 ; do date +"%s.%N%t" | tr -d "\n" ; grep "cpu " /proc/stat |
> sed 's/cpu//' ; done | \
>         awk '    {for (i=1; i < 12; ++i) {diff[i] = $i-prev[i]; prev[i]=$i;
>         printf("%.2f\t", diff[i]/diff[1]);} print ""; }'

3) In the guest, keep a vcpu busy, `while true ; do true ; done`

4) Watch fields of /proc/stat grow

## Expected behavior

The cpu field (9) guest time grows at ~USER_HZ/s (typically 100). Possibly,
field (10) guest_nice grows. (Not sure about other fields.)

## Actual behavior

The cpu fields (9) guest and (10) guest_nice time remain 0.

## Past information

I saw similar mismatch with v5.5-based kernel where the KVM vcpu time was
accounted both to user (1) and guest (9) components.
