perf kvm: Guest userspace samples should not be lumped with host uspace
e.g., perf kvm --host --guest report -i perf.data --stdio -D shows: 1 599127912065356 0x143b8 [0x48]: PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 5): 5671/5676: 0x7fdf95a061c0 period: 1 addr: 0 ... chain: nr:2 ..... 0: ffffffffffffff80 ..... 1: fffffffffffffe00 ... thread: qemu-kvm:5671 ...... dso: <not found> (IP, 5) means sample in guest userspace. Those samples should not be lumped into the VMM's host thread. i.e, the report output: 56.86% qemu-kvm [unknown] [u] 0x00007fdf95a061c0 With this patch the output emphasizes it is a guest userspace hit: 56.86% [guest/5671] [unknown] [u] 0x00007fdf95a061c0 Looking at 3 VMs (2 64-bit, 1 32-bit) with each running a CPU bound process (openssl speed), perf report currently shows: 93.84% 117726 qemu-kvm [unknown] [u] 0x00007fd7dcaea8e5 which is wrong. With this patch you get: 31.50% 39258 [guest/18772] [unknown] [u] 0x00007fd7dcaea8e5 31.50% 39236 [guest/11230] [unknown] [u] 0x0000000000a57340 30.84% 39232 [guest/18395] [unknown] [u] 0x00007f66f641e107 Tested-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1342826756-64663-4-git-send-email-dsahern@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
