      perf kvm: Events analysis tool · bcf6edcd
      Xiao Guangrong authored
      Add 'perf kvm stat' support to analyze kvm vmexit/mmio/ioport smartly
      
      Usage:
      - kvm stat
        run a command and gather performance counter statistics, it is the alias of
        perf stat
      
      - trace kvm events:
        perf kvm stat record, or, if other tracepoints are interesting as well, we
        can append the events like this:
        perf kvm stat record -e timer:* -a
      
        If many guests are running, we can track the specified guest by using -p or
        --pid, -a is used to track events generated by all guests.
      
      - show the result:
        perf kvm stat report
      
      The output example is following:
      13005
      13059
      
      total 2 guests are running on the host
      
      Then, track the guest whose pid is 13059:
      ^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
      [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.253 MB perf.data.guest (~11065 samples) ]
      
      See the vmexit events:

      perf tools: Fix parallel build · e6048fb8
      Eric Sandeen authored
      Parallel builds of perf were failing for me on a 32p box, with:
      
          * new build flags or prefix
      util/pmu.l:7:23: error: pmu-bison.h: No such file or directory
      
      ...
      
      make: *** [util/pmu-flex.o] Error 1
      make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
      
      This can pretty quickly be seen by adding a sleep in front of the bison
      calls in tools/perf/Makefile and running make -j4 on a smaller box i.e.:
      
      	sleep 10; $(QUIET_BISON)$(BISON) -v util/pmu.y -d -o $(OUTPUT)util/pmu-bison.c
      
      Adding the following dependencies fixes it for me.
