Commit Message

James Clark Oct. 19, 2023, 4:55 p.m. UTC
Currently the userspace and kernel filters for guests are never set, so
no trace will be generated for them. Add support for tracing guests by
passing the desired TRFCR value to KVM so it can be applied to the
guest.

By writing either E1TRE or E0TRE, filtering on either guest kernel or
guest userspace is also supported. And if both E1TRE and E0TRE are
cleared when exclude_guest is set, that option is supported too. This
change also brings exclude_host support which is difficult to add as a
separate commit without excess churn and resulting in no trace at all.

Testing
=======

The addresses were counted with the following:

  $ perf report -D | grep -Eo 'EL2|EL1|EL0' | sort | uniq -c

Guest kernel only:

  $ perf record -e cs_etm//Gk -a -- true
    535 EL1
      1 EL2

Guest user only (only 5 addresses because the guest runs slowly in the
model):

  $ perf record -e cs_etm//Gu -a -- true
    5 EL0

Host kernel only:

  $  perf record -e cs_etm//Hk -a -- true
   3501 EL2

Host userspace only:

  $  perf record -e cs_etm//Hu -a -- true
    408 EL0
      1 EL2

Here we are using the Guest "Virtual time" for the trace, which could be 
different from that of the "host" (if the trace covers both). Thus 
correlating the trace could be difficult if someone wants to do that.

We could switch to using Physical time, for the guest trace always,
matching the host time for correlating the events. (Assuming we are not
a Guest Hypervisor).

Rest looks fine to me.

nit: Some day, we should move to using the "event->attrs" directly, than 
translating them to these values.

I don't think it would be difficult, you need to have a perf recording
from inside the guest anyway to capture the DSO mappings and switch
events. So that recording would have the guest's time conversion event
in it.

It might require a perf change to handle two different time conversion
packets, or you'd probably just want to use the guest one anyway which
might already work. I haven't really tested it in that much detail.

I think Physical time would be less useful, because eventually we want
to be able to handle things like overlapping mmaps around execs etc so
we need the virtual time.

Physical time is only good for ordering events, and the virtual time can
do that too.

One thing that we might want to do is make TRFCR_ELx_TS_VIRTUAL
configurable via a config option if you want to be able to correlate
host and guest trace together with physical time. But I think that would
be an extra change because it's already hard coded to on, and you can
already trace nVHE guests. We should probably keep this change just
about the filtering only.

Yeah we could do that, that would be a good cleanup.
