DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
There are a couple of variants of perf kvm:
|
|
|
|
'perf kvm [options] top <command>' to generates and displays
|
|
a performance counter profile of guest os in realtime
|
|
of an arbitrary workload.
|
|
|
|
'perf kvm record <command>' to record the performance counter profile
|
|
of an arbitrary workload and save it into a perf data file. We set the
|
|
default behavior of perf kvm as --guest, so if neither --host nor --guest
|
|
is input, the perf data file name is perf.data.guest. If --host is input,
|
|
the perf data file name is perf.data.kvm. If you want to record data into
|
|
perf.data.host, please input --host --no-guest. The behaviors are shown as
|
|
following:
|
|
Default('') -> perf.data.guest
|
|
--host -> perf.data.kvm
|
|
--guest -> perf.data.guest
|
|
--host --guest -> perf.data.kvm
|
|
--host --no-guest -> perf.data.host
|
|
|
|
'perf kvm report' to display the performance counter profile information
|
|
recorded via perf kvm record.
|
|
|
|
'perf kvm diff' to displays the performance difference amongst two perf.data
|
|
files captured via perf record.
|
|
|
|
'perf kvm buildid-list' to display the buildids found in a perf data file,
|
|
so that other tools can be used to fetch packages with matching symbol tables
|
|
for use by perf report. As buildid is read from /sys/kernel/notes in os, then
|
|
if you want to list the buildid for guest, please make sure your perf data file
|
|
was captured with --guestmount in perf kvm record.
|
|
|
|
'perf kvm stat <command>' to run a command and gather performance counter
|
|
statistics.
|
|
Especially, perf 'kvm stat record/report' generates a statistical analysis
|
|
of KVM events. Currently, vmexit, mmio and ioport events are supported.
|
|
'perf kvm stat record <command>' records kvm events and the events between
|
|
start and end <command>.
|
|
And this command produces a file which contains tracing results of kvm
|
|
events.
|
|
|
|
'perf kvm stat report' reports statistical data which includes events
|
|
handled time, samples, and so on.
|
|
|
|
'perf kvm stat live' reports statistical data in a live mode (similar to
|
|
record + report but with statistical data updated live at a given display
|
|
rate).
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
-i::
|
|
--input=<path>::
|
|
Input file name.
|
|
-o::
|
|
--output=<path>::
|
|
Output file name.
|
|
--host::
|
|
Collect host side performance profile.
|
|
--guest::
|
|
Collect guest side performance profile.
|
|
--guestmount=<path>::
|
|
Guest os root file system mount directory. Users mounts guest os
|
|
root directories under <path> by a specific filesystem access method,
|
|
typically, sshfs. For example, start 2 guest os. The one's pid is 8888
|
|
and the other's is 9999.
|
|
#mkdir ~/guestmount; cd ~/guestmount
|
|
#sshfs -o allow_other,direct_io -p 5551 localhost:/ 8888/
|
|
#sshfs -o allow_other,direct_io -p 5552 localhost:/ 9999/
|
|
#perf kvm --host --guest --guestmount=~/guestmount top
|
|
--guestkallsyms=<path>::
|
|
Guest os /proc/kallsyms file copy. 'perf' kvm' reads it to get guest
|
|
kernel symbols. Users copy it out from guest os.
|
|
--guestmodules=<path>::
|
|
Guest os /proc/modules file copy. 'perf' kvm' reads it to get guest
|
|
kernel module information. Users copy it out from guest os.
|
|
--guestvmlinux=<path>::
|
|
Guest os kernel vmlinux.
|
|
-v::
|
|
--verbose::
|
|
Be more verbose (show counter open errors, etc).
|
|
|
|
STAT REPORT OPTIONS
|
|
-------------------
|
|
--vcpu=<value>::
|
|
analyze events which occures on this vcpu. (default: all vcpus)
|
|
|
|
--event=<value>::
|
|
event to be analyzed. Possible values: vmexit, mmio, ioport.
|
|
(default: vmexit)
|
|
-k::
|
|
--key=<value>::
|
|
Sorting key. Possible values: sample (default, sort by samples
|
|
number), time (sort by average time).
|
|
-p::
|
|
--pid=::
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
