perf kvm: Events analysis tool
Add 'perf kvm stat' support to analyze kvm vmexit/mmio/ioport smartly
Usage:
- kvm stat
run a command and gather performance counter statistics, it is the alias of
perf stat
- trace kvm events:
perf kvm stat record, or, if other tracepoints are interesting as well, we
can append the events like this:
perf kvm stat record -e timer:* -a
If many guests are running, we can track the specified guest by using -p or
--pid, -a is used to track events generated by all guests.
- show the result:
perf kvm stat report
The output example is following:
13005
13059
total 2 guests are running on the host
Then, track the guest whose pid is 13059:
^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.253 MB perf.data.guest (~11065 samples) ]
See the vmexit events:
Analyze events for all VCPUs:
VM-EXIT Samples Samples% Time% Avg time
APIC_ACCESS 460 70.55% 0.01% 22.44us ( +- 1.75% )
HLT 93 14.26% 99.98% 832077.26us ( +- 10.42% )
EXTERNAL_INTERRUPT 64 9.82% 0.00% 35.35us ( +- 14.21% )
PENDING_INTERRUPT 24 3.68% 0.00% 9.29us ( +- 31.39% )
CR_ACCESS 7 1.07% 0.00% 8.12us ( +- 5.76% )
IO_INSTRUCTION 3 0.46% 0.00% 18.00us ( +- 11.79% )
EXCEPTION_NMI 1 0.15% 0.00% 5.83us ( +- -nan% )
Total Samples:652, Total events handled time:77396109.80us.
See the mmio events:
Analyze events for all VCPUs:
MMIO Access Samples Samples% Time% Avg time
0xfee00380:W 387 84.31% 79.28% 8.29us ( +- 3.32% )
0xfee00300:W 24 5.23% 9.96% 16.79us ( +- 1.97% )
0xfee00300:R 24 5.23% 7.83% 13.20us ( +- 3.00% )
0xfee00310:W 24 5.23% 2.93% 4.94us ( +- 3.84% )
Total Samples:459, Total events handled time:4044.59us.
See the ioport event:
Analyze events for all VCPUs:
IO Port Access Samples Samples% Time% Avg time
0xc050:POUT 3 100.00% 100.00% 13.75us ( +- 10.83% )
Total Samples:3, Total events handled time:41.26us.
And, --vcpu is used to track the specified vcpu and --key is used to sort the
result:
Analyze events for VCPU 0:
