There's something with the nomenclature that makes this really hard to read. you mention here: "event type", "the id", and "event number". The former two I think are perf identifiers, and the latter is the hardware event number, is this right? > > Check whether the event type is same with the one to be set. when? > If not, > stop counter to monitor current event and find the event type map id. > According to the bits of data to configure this perf_event attr and > set exclude_host to 1 for guest.
