From c3858335c711569b82a234a560dc19247e8f3fcc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jing Zhang Date: Fri, 8 Oct 2021 19:12:08 -0700 Subject: KVM: stats: Add stat to detect if vcpu is currently blocking Add a "blocking" stat that userspace can use to detect the case where a vCPU is not being run because of an vCPU/guest action, e.g. HLT or WFS on x86, WFI on arm64, etc... Current guest/host/halt stats don't show this well, e.g. if a guest halts for a long period of time then the vCPU could could appear pathologically blocked due to a host condition, when in reality the vCPU has been put into a not-runnable state by the guest.
