Subject: [PATCH] Move VMEnter and VMExit tracepoints closer to the actual event
Date: Wed, 19 May 2021 20:23:03 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210519182303.2790-1-stefano.devenuto99@gmail.com> (raw)
The kvm_entry and kvm_exit tracepoints are still quite far from the
actual VMEnters/VMExits. This means that in a trace we can find host
events after a kvm_entry event and before a kvm_exit one, as in this
example:
trace.dat: CPU 0/KVM-4594 [001] 2.167191: kvm_entry:
trace.dat: CPU 0/KVM-4594 [001] 2.167192: write_msr: 48, value 0
trace.dat: CPU 0/KVM-4594 [001] 2.167192: rcu_utilization: Start context switch
trace.dat: CPU 0/KVM-4594 [001] 2.167192: rcu_utilization: End context switch
trace-tumbleweed.dat: <idle>-0 [000] 2.167196: hrtimer_cancel:
trace-tumbleweed.dat: <idle>-0 [000] 2.167197: hrtimer_expire_entry:
trace-tumbleweed.dat: <idle>-0 [000] 2.167201: hrtimer_expire_exit:
trace-tumbleweed.dat: <idle>-0 [000] 2.167201: hrtimer_start:
trace.dat: CPU 0/KVM-4594 [001] 2.167203: read_msr: 48, value 0
trace.dat: CPU 0/KVM-4594 [001] 2.167203: write_msr: 48, value 4
trace.dat: CPU 0/KVM-4594 [001] 2.167204: kvm_exit:
This patch moves the tracepoints closer to the events, for both Intel
and AMD, so that a combined host-guest trace will offer a more
realistic representation of what is really happening, as shown here:
trace.dat: CPU 0/KVM-2553 [000] 2.190290: write_msr: 48, value 0
trace.dat: CPU 0/KVM-2553 [000] 2.190290: rcu_utilization: Start context switch
trace.dat: CPU 0/KVM-2553 [000] 2.190290: rcu_utilization: End context switch
trace.dat: CPU 0/KVM-2553 [000] 2.190290: kvm_entry:
trace-tumbleweed.dat: <idle>-0 [000] 2.190290: write_msr:
trace-tumbleweed.dat: <idle>-0 [000] 2.190290: cpu_idle:
trace.dat: CPU 0/KVM-2553 [000] 2.190291: kvm_exit:
trace.dat: CPU 0/KVM-2553 [000] 2.190291: read_msr: 48, value 0
trace.dat: CPU 0/KVM-2553 [000] 2.190291: write_msr: 48, value 4
