Subject: [PATCH v2 28/28] KVM: arm64: Add tracepoints for S2 page table walk
Date: Fri, 23 Oct 2026 13:56:10 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261023205610.1044532-29-oupton@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261023205610.1044532-1-oupton@kernel.org>

MMU walk steps are a useful tidbit of information for KVM hackers. As
these events are far closer to modelling CPU architecture than exposing
KVM internals it clears the bar for adding tracepoints.
