/* NOTE:
* - Each perf counter is defined as "struct kvm_pmc";
* - There are two types of perf counters: general purpose (gp) and fixed.
* gp counters are stored in gp_counters[] and fixed counters are stored
* in fixed_counters[] respectively. Both of them are part of "struct
* kvm_pmu";
* - pmu.c understands the difference between gp counters and fixed counters.
* However AMD doesn't support fixed-counters;
* - There are three types of index to access perf counters (PMC):
* 1. MSR (named msr): For example Intel has MSR_IA32_PERFCTRn and AMD
* has MSR_K7_PERFCTRn.
* 2. MSR Index (named idx): This normally is used by RDPMC instruction.
* For instance AMD RDPMC instruction uses 0000_0003h in ECX to access
* C001_0007h (MSR_K7_PERCTR3). Intel has a similar mechanism, except
* that it also supports fixed counters. idx can be used to as index to
* gp and fixed counters.
* 3. Global PMC Index (named pmc): pmc is an index specific to PMU
* code. Each pmc, stored in kvm_pmc.idx field, is unique across
* all perf counters (both gp and fixed). The mapping relationship
* between pmc and perf counters is as the following:
* * Intel: [0 .. INTEL_PMC_MAX_GENERIC-1] <=> gp counters
* [INTEL_PMC_IDX_FIXED .. INTEL_PMC_IDX_FIXED + 2] <=> fixed
* * AMD: [0 .. AMD64_NUM_COUNTERS-1] <=> gp counters

KVM: x86/pmu: Introduce pmc->is_paused to reduce the call time of perf interfaces Based on our observations, after any vm-exit associated with vPMU, there are at least two or more perf interfaces to be called for guest counter emulation, such as perf_event_{pause, read_value, period}(), and each one will {lock, unlock} the same perf_event_ctx. The frequency of calls becomes more severe when guest use counters in a multiplexed manner. Holding a lock once and completing the KVM request operations in the perf context would introduce a set of impractical new interfaces. So we can further optimize the vPMU implementation by avoiding repeated calls to these interfaces in the KVM context for at least one pattern: After we call perf_event_pause() once, the event will be disabled and its internal count will be reset to 0. So there is no need to pause it again or read its value. Once the event is paused, event period will not be updated until the next time it's resumed or reprogrammed. And there is also no need to call perf_event_period twice for a non-running counter, considering the perf_event for a running counter is never paused. Based on this implementation, for the following common usage of sampling 4 events using perf on a 4u8g guest: echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/watchdog echo 25 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_cpu_time_max_percent echo 10000 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_cpu_time_max_percent for i in `seq 1 1 10` do taskset -c 0 perf record \ -e cpu-cycles -e instructions -e branch-instructions -e cache-misses \ /root/br_instr a done the average latency of the guest NMI handler is reduced from 37646.7 ns to 32929.3 ns (~1.14x speed up) on the Intel ICX server. Also, in addition to collecting more samples, no loss of sampling accuracy was observed compared to before the optimization.

KVM: x86/vPMU: Reuse perf_event to avoid unnecessary pmc_reprogram_counter The perf_event_create_kernel_counter() in the pmc_reprogram_counter() is a heavyweight and high-frequency operation, especially when host disables the watchdog (maximum 21000000 ns) which leads to an unacceptable latency of the guest NMI handler. It limits the use of vPMUs in the guest. When a vPMC is fully enabled, the legacy reprogram_*_counter() would stop and release its existing perf_event (if any) every time EVEN in most cases almost the same requested perf_event will be created and configured again. For each vPMC, if the reuqested config ('u64 eventsel' for gp and 'u8 ctrl' for fixed) is the same as its current config AND a new sample period based on pmc->counter is accepted by host perf interface, the current event could be reused safely as a new created one does. Otherwise, do release the undesirable perf_event and reprogram a new one as usual. It's light-weight to call pmc_pause_counter (disable, read and reset event) and pmc_resume_counter (recalibrate period and re-enable event) as guest expects instead of release-and-create again on any condition. Compared to use the filterable event->attr or hw.config, a new 'u64 current_config' field is added to save the last original programed config for each vPMC. Based on this implementation, the number of calls to pmc_reprogram_counter is reduced by ~82.5% for a gp sampling event and ~99.9% for a fixed event. In the usage of multiplexing perf sampling mode, the average latency of the guest NMI handler is reduced from 104923 ns to 48393 ns (~2.16x speed up). If host disables watchdog, the minimum latecy of guest NMI handler could be speed up at ~3413x (from 20407603 to 5979 ns) and at ~786x in the average.

KVM: x86/vPMU: Reuse perf_event to avoid unnecessary pmc_reprogram_counter The perf_event_create_kernel_counter() in the pmc_reprogram_counter() is a heavyweight and high-frequency operation, especially when host disables the watchdog (maximum 21000000 ns) which leads to an unacceptable latency of the guest NMI handler. It limits the use of vPMUs in the guest. When a vPMC is fully enabled, the legacy reprogram_*_counter() would stop and release its existing perf_event (if any) every time EVEN in most cases almost the same requested perf_event will be created and configured again. For each vPMC, if the reuqested config ('u64 eventsel' for gp and 'u8 ctrl' for fixed) is the same as its current config AND a new sample period based on pmc->counter is accepted by host perf interface, the current event could be reused safely as a new created one does. Otherwise, do release the undesirable perf_event and reprogram a new one as usual. It's light-weight to call pmc_pause_counter (disable, read and reset event) and pmc_resume_counter (recalibrate period and re-enable event) as guest expects instead of release-and-create again on any condition. Compared to use the filterable event->attr or hw.config, a new 'u64 current_config' field is added to save the last original programed config for each vPMC. Based on this implementation, the number of calls to pmc_reprogram_counter is reduced by ~82.5% for a gp sampling event and ~99.9% for a fixed event. In the usage of multiplexing perf sampling mode, the average latency of the guest NMI handler is reduced from 104923 ns to 48393 ns (~2.16x speed up). If host disables watchdog, the minimum latecy of guest NMI handler could be speed up at ~3413x (from 20407603 to 5979 ns) and at ~786x in the average.
