Add a new option `pmu-filter` as '-accel kvm' sub-option to set the PMU Event Filtering. The usage of the new sub-option can be found from the updated docuement (qemu-options.hx). Here is an example shows how to use the PMU Event Filtering. # qemu-system-aarch64 -accel kvm,pmu-filter="D:0x11-0x11" Since the first action is deny, we have a global allow policy. This disables the filtering of the cycle counter (event 0x11). In the guest, we use the perf to count the CPU cycles. The PMU event has been disabled, but other events are still present. # perf stat sleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1': 1.22 msec task-clock # 0.001 CPUs utilized 1 context-switches # 820.695 /sec 0 cpu-migrations # 0.000 /sec 55 page-faults # 45.138 K/sec <not supported> cycles 1128954 instructions 227031 branches # 186.323 M/sec 8686 branch-misses # 3.83% of all branches 1.002492480 seconds time elapsed 0.001752000 seconds user 0.000000000 seconds sys > diff --git a/include/sysemu/kvm_int.h b/include/sysemu/kvm_int.h > index fd846394be..8f4601474f 100644 > --- a/include/sysemu/kvm_int.h > +++ b/include/sysemu/kvm_int.h > @@ -120,6 +120,7 @@ struct KVMState > uint32_t xen_caps; > uint16_t xen_gnttab_max_frames; > uint16_t xen_evtchn_max_pirq; > + char *kvm_pmu_filter; > }; > > void kvm_memory_listener_register(KVMState *s, KVMMemoryListener *kml, > diff --git a/qemu-options.hx b/qemu-options.hx > index 42fd09e4de..054865ba0d 100644 > --- a/qemu-options.hx > +++ b/qemu-options.hx > @@ -187,6 +187,7 @@ DEF("accel", HAS_ARG, QEMU_OPTION_accel, > " tb-size=n (TCG translation block cache size)\n" > " dirty-ring-size=n (KVM dirty ring GFN count, default 0)\n" > " eager-split-size=n (KVM Eager Page Split chunk size, default 0, disabled.

Otherwise, there is another unnecessary and temporary struct in the stack if the tool-chain isn't smart enough, leading to memory waste in the stack. filter.base_event = start; filter.nevents = end - start + 1; filter.act = (act == 'A') ?

The last warn_report() line breaks 80-chars in a line. I'm wandering if we really need these explicit messages, which are usually a intrest to developers. They still need look into kernel space to figure out the cause. There already has a error_report() raised for the failing case in kvm_arm_set_device_attr(). So I would suggest to drop all of them and bail for simplicity. if (!kvm_arm_set_device_attr(cs, &attr, "PMU Event Filter")) { break; } > + } > + > + g_strfreev(event_filters); > +} > + > void kvm_arm_pmu_init(CPUState *cs) > { > struct kvm_device_attr attr = { > @@ -141,6 +213,9 @@ void kvm_arm_pmu_init(CPUState *cs) > if (!ARM_CPU(cs)->has_pmu) { > return; > } > + > + kvm_arm_pmu_filter_init(cs); > + > if (!kvm_arm_set_device_attr(cs, &attr, "PMU")) { > error_report("failed to init PMU"); > abort(); Thanks, Gavin

I've managed to quote the wrong commit. It's that one: d7eec2360e3 ("KVM: arm64: Add PMU event filtering infrastructure") Note that although the ioctl is per-vcpu, the map of allowed events is global to the VM (it can be setup from any vcpu until the vcpu PMU is initialized).

The KVM_ARM_VCPU_PMU_V3_FILTER provide the ability to let the VMM decide which PMU events are provided to the guest. Add a new option `pmu-filter` as -accel sub-option to set the PMU Event Filtering. Without the filter, the KVM will expose all events from the host to guest by default. The `pmu-filter` has such format: pmu-filter="{A,D}:start-end[;{A,D}:start-end...]" The A means "allow" and D means "deny", start is the first event of the range and the end is the last one. The first registered range defines the global policy(global ALLOW if the first @action is DENY, global DENY if the first @action is ALLOW). The start and end only support hex format now. For example: pmu-filter="A:0x11-0x11;A:0x23-0x3a;D:0x30-0x30" Since the first action is allow, we have a global deny policy. It will allow event 0x11 (The cycle counter), events 0x23 to 0x3a is also allowed except the event 0x30 is denied, and all the other events are disallowed. Here is an real example shows how to use the PMU Event Filtering, when we launch a guest by use kvm, add such command line: # qemu-system-aarch64 \ -accel kvm,pmu-filter="D:0x11-0x11" Since the first action is deny, we have a global allow policy. This disables the filtering of the cycle counter (event 0x11 being CPU_CYCLES). And then in guest, use the perf to count the cycle: # perf stat sleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1': 1.22 msec task-clock # 0.001 CPUs utilized 1 context-switches # 820.695 /sec 0 cpu-migrations # 0.000 /sec 55 page-faults # 45.138 K/sec <not supported> cycles 1128954 instructions 227031 branches # 186.323 M/sec 8686 branch-misses # 3.83% of all branches 1.002492480 seconds time elapsed 0.001752000 seconds user 0.000000000 seconds sys As we can see, the cycle counter has been disabled in the guest, but other pmu events are still work.
