From 1afe1d148491069ef51ed69fa53b09e1cb3ec30d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Ahern Date: Mon, 5 Aug 2013 21:41:34 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] perf kvm: Add live mode perf kvm stat currently requires back to back record and report commands to see stats. e.g,. perf kvm stat record -p $pid -- sleep 1 perf kvm stat report This is inconvenvient for on box monitoring of a VM. This patch introduces a 'live' mode that in effect combines the record plus report into one command. e.g., to monitor a single VM: perf kvm stat live -p $pid or all VMs: perf kvm stat live Same stats options for the record+report path work with the live mode. Display rate defaults to 1 second and can be changed using the -d option. v4: - address comments from Xiao -- verify_vcpu check should not look at processors on line for the host, prune configurable options. - set attr->{mmap,comm,task} to 0 - don't need task events so trim events we have to deal with - better control of time for queue event flushing to reduce frequency of "Timestamp below last timeslice flush" failures. v3: updated to use existing tracepoint parsing code v2: removed ABSTIME arg from timerfd_settime as mentioned by Namhyung only call perf_kvm__handle_stdin when poll returns activity.
