Subject: [PATCH v4 0/7] mshv: Debugfs interface for mshv_root
Date: Wed, 21 Jan 2026 13:46:16 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260121214623.76374-1-nunodasneves@linux.microsoft.com> (raw)
Expose hypervisor, logical processor, partition, and virtual processor
statistics via debugfs. These are provided by mapping 'stats' pages via
hypercall.
Patch #1: Update hv_call_map_stats_page() to return success when
HV_STATS_AREA_PARENT is unavailable, which is the case on some
hypervisor versions, where it can fall back to HV_STATS_AREA_SELF
Patch #2: Use struct hv_stats_page pointers instead of void *
Patch #3: Make mshv_vp_stats_map/unmap() more flexible to use with debugfs code
Patch #4: Always map vp stats page regardless of scheduler, to reuse in debugfs
Patch #5: Change to hv_stats_page definition and VpRootDispatchThreadBlocked
Patch #6: Introduce the definitions needed for the various stats pages
Patch #7: Add mshv_debugfs.c, and integrate it with the mshv_root driver to
expose the partition and VP stats.
---
Changes in v4:
- Put the counters definitions in static arrays in hv_counters.c, instead of as
enums in hvhdk.h [Michael]
- Due to the above, add an additional patch (#5) to simplify hv_stats_page, and
retain the enum definition at the top of mshv_root_main.c for use with
VpRootDispatchThreadBlocked. That is the only remaining use of the counter
enum.
- Due to the above, use num_present_cpus() as the number of LPs to map stats
pages for - this number shouldn't change at runtime because the hypervisor
doesn't support hotplug for root partition.
Changes in v3:
- Add 3 small refactor/cleanup patches (patches 2,3,4) from Stanislav. These
simplify some of the debugfs code, and fix issues with mapping VP stats on
L1VH.
- Fix cleanup of parent stats dentries on module removal (via squashing some
internal patches into patch #6) [Praveen]
- Remove unused goto label [Stanislav, kernel bot]
- Use struct hv_stats_page * instead of void * in mshv_debugfs.c [Stanislav]
- Remove some redundant variables [Stanislav]
- Rename debugfs dentry fields for brevity [Stanislav]
- Use ERR_CAST() for the dentry error pointer returned from
lp_debugfs_stats_create() [Stanislav]
- Fix leak of pages allocated for lp stats mappings by storing them in an array
[Michael]
- Add comments to clarify PARENT vs SELF usage and edge cases [Michael]
- Add VpLoadAvg for x86 and print the stat [Michael]
- Add NUM_STATS_AREAS for array sizing in mshv_debugfs.c [Michael]
Changes in v2:
- Remove unnecessary pr_debug_once() in patch 1 [Stanislav Kinsburskii]
- CONFIG_X86 -> CONFIG_X86_64 in patch 2 [Stanislav Kinsburskii]
