2017-03-29tools/kvm_stat: add '%Total' columnStefan Raspl1-1/+8
Add column '%Total' next to 'Total' for easier comparison of numbers between hosts. Signed-off-by: Stefan Raspl <raspl@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Marc Hartmayer <mhartmay@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Radim Krčmář <rkrcmar@redhat.com>
2017-03-29tools/kvm_stat: add interactive command 'r'Stefan Raspl2-14/+53
Provide an interactive command to reset the tracepoint statistics. Requires some extra work for debugfs, as the counters cannot be reset. On the up side, this offers us the opportunity to have debugfs values reset on startup and whenever a filter is modified, becoming consistent with the tracepoint provider. As a bonus, 'kvmstat -dt' will now provide useful output, instead of mixing values in totally different orders of magnitude. Furthermore, we avoid unnecessary resets when any of the filters is "changed" interactively to the previous value.

2017-03-29tools/kvm_stat: add option '--guest'Stefan Raspl2-2/+105
Add a new option '-g'/'--guest' to select a particular process by providing the QEMU guest name. Notes: - The logic to figure out the pid corresponding to the guest name might look scary, but works pretty reliably in practice; in the unlikely event that it returns add'l flukes, it will bail out and hint at using '-p' instead, no harm done. - Mixing '-g' and '-p' is possible, and the final instance specified on the command line is the significant one. This is consistent with current behavior for '-p' which, if specified multiple times, also regards the final instance as the significant one.

2017-03-29tools/kvm_stat: remove regex filter on empty inputStefan Raspl1-0/+1
Behavior on empty/0 input for regex and pid filtering was inconsistent, as the former would keep the current filter, while the latter would (naturally) remove any pid filtering. Make things consistent by falling back to the default filter on empty input for the regex filter dialogue.

2017-03-29tools/kvm_stat: reduce perceived idle time on filter updatesStefan Raspl1-18/+30
Whenever a user adds a filter, we * redraw the header immediately for a snappy response * print a message indicating to the user that we're busy while the noticeable delay induced by updating all of the stats objects takes place * update the statistics ASAP (i.e. after 0.25s instead of 3s) to be consistent with behavior on startup To do so, we split the Tui's refresh() method to allow for drawing header and stats separately, and trigger a header refresh whenever we are about to do something that takes a while - like updating filters.

2017-03-29tools/kvm_stat: fix trace setup glitch on field updates in TracepointProviderStefan Raspl1-2/+3
Updating the fields of the TracepointProvider does not propagate changes to the tracepoints. This shows when a pid filter is enabled, whereby subsequent extensions of the fields of the Tracepoint provider (e.g. by toggling drilldown) will not modify the tracepoints as required. To reproduce, select a specific process via interactive command 'p', and enable drilldown via 'x' - none of the fields with the braces will appear although they should. The fix will always leave all available fields in the TracepointProvider enabled.

Having stats for single VMs can help to determine the problem of a VM without the need of running other tools like perf.

2016-05-25tools: Add kvm_stat vm monitor scriptJanosch Frank2-0/+830
This tool displays kvm vm exit statistics to ease vm monitoring. It takes its data from the kvm debugfs files or the vm tracepoints and outputs them as a curses ui or simple text. It was moved from qemu, as it is dependent on the kernel whereas qemu works with a large number of kernel versions, some of which may break the script.
