Architecturally, PDPTEs are cached in the PDPTRs when CR3 is reloaded.
On SVM, it is not possible to implement this, but on VMX this is possible
and was indeed implemented until nested SVM changed this to unconditionally
read PDPTEs dynamically.  This has noticable impact when running PAE guests.

Fix by changing the MMU to read PDPTRs from the cache, falling back to
reading from memory for the nested MMU.

Instead of passing ctxt->_eip from insn_fetch() call sites, get it from
ctxt in do_insn_fetch_byte().  This is done by replacing the argument
_eip of insn_fetch() with _ctxt, which should be better than letting the

Currently the method of dealing with an IO operation on a bus (PIO/MMIO)
is to call the read or write callback for each device registered
on the bus until we find a device which handles it.

Since the number of devices on a bus can be significant due to ioeventfds
and coalesced MMIO zones, this leads to a lot of overhead on each IO
operation.

Instead of registering devices, we now register ranges which points to
a device. Lookup is done using an efficient bsearch instead of a linear
search.

Performance test was conducted by comparing exit count per second with
200 ioeventfds created on one byte and the guest is trying to access a
different byte continuously (triggering usermode exits).
Before the patch the guest has achieved 259k exits per second, after the
patch the guest does 274k exits per second.

The vmexit tracepoints format the exit_reason to make it human-readable.
Since the exit_reason depends on the instruction set (vmx or svm),
formatting is handled with ftrace_print_symbols_seq() by referring to
the appropriate exit reason table.

However, the ftrace_print_symbols_seq() function is not meant to be used
directly in tracepoints since it does not export the formatting table
which userspace tools like trace-cmd and perf use to format traces.

In practice perf dies when formatting vmexit-related events and
trace-cmd falls back to printing the numeric value (with extra
formatting code in the kvm plugin to paper over this limitation).  Other
userspace consumers of vmexit-related tracepoints would be in similar
trouble.

To avoid significant changes to the kvm_exit tracepoint, this patch
moves the vmx and svm exit reason tables into arch/x86/kvm/trace.h and
selects the right table with __print_symbolic() depending on the
instruction set.  Note that __print_symbolic() is designed for exporting
the formatting table to userspace and allows trace-cmd and perf to work.

The kvm_exit tracepoint recently added the isa argument to aid decoding
exit_reason.  The semantics of exit_reason depend on the instruction set
(vmx or svm) and the isa argument allows traces to be analyzed on other
machines.

Add the isa argument to kvm_nested_vmexit and kvm_nested_vmexit_inject
so these tracepoints can also be self-describing.

The patch raises the hard limit of VCPU count to 254.

This will allow developers to easily work on scalability
and will allow users to test high VCPU setups easily without
patching the kernel.

To prevent possible issues with current setups, KVM_CAP_NR_VCPUS
now returns the recommended VCPU limit (which is still 64) - this
should be a safe value for everybody, while a new KVM_CAP_MAX_VCPUS
returns the hard limit which is now 254.

GCC often introduces new warnings with lots of false positives -
breaking -Werror builds. WERROR=0 allows one to build perf without much
fuss - while still encouraging people to send patches to avoid the fuss
of having to type WERROR=0.

Bisecting back to commits that produce a (mostly harmless) warning on
some compilers is more difficult. With WERROR=0 one could bisect without
worrying about harmless warnings.

Buildid can vary in size. According to the man page of ld, buildid can
be 160 bits (sha1) or 128 bits (md5, uuid). Perf assumes buildid size of
20 bytes (160 bits) regardless. When dealing with md5 buildids, it would
thus read more than needed and that would cause mismatches and samples
without symbols.

This patch fixes this by taking into account the actual buildid size as
encoded int he section header. The leftover bytes are also cleared.

This second version fixes a minor issue with the memset() base position.

Currently, analyzing PPC data files on x86 the cpu field is always 0 and
the tid and pid are backwards. For example, analyzing a PPC file on PPC
the pid/tid fields show:

        rsyslogd  1210/1212

and analyzing the same PPC file using an x86 perf binary shows:

        rsyslogd  1212/1210

The problem is that the swap_op method for samples is
perf_event__all64_swap which assumes all elements in the sample_data
struct are u64s. cpu, tid and pid are u32s and need to be handled
individually. Given that the swap is done before the sample is parsed,
the simplest solution is to undo the 64-bit swap of those elements when
the sample is parsed and do the proper swap.

The RAW data field is generic and perf cannot have programmatic knowledge
of how to treat that data. Instead a warning is given to the user.

Thanks to Anton Blanchard for providing a data file for a mult-CPU
PPC system so I could verify the fix for the CPU fields.

v3 -> v4:
- fixed use of WARN_ONCE

v2 -> v3:
- used WARN_ONCE for message regarding raw data
- removed struct wrapper around union
- fixed whitespace issues

v1 -> v2:
- added a union for undoing the byte-swap on u64 and redoing swap on
  u32's to address compiler errors (see git commit 65014ab3)

I took a profile that suggested 60% of total CPU time was in the
hypervisor:

...
    60.20%  [H] 0x33d43c
     4.43%  [k] ._spin_lock_irqsave
     1.07%  [k] ._spin_lock

Using perf stat to get the user/kernel/hypervisor breakdown contradicted
this.

The problem is we merge all unresolved samples into the one unknown
bucket. If add a comparison by sample type to sort__sym_cmp we get the
real picture:

...
    57.11%  [.] 0x80fbf63c
     4.43%  [k] ._spin_lock_irqsave
     1.07%  [k] ._spin_lock
     0.65%  [H] 0x33d43c

So it was almost all userspace, not hypervisor as the initial profile
suggested.

I found another issue while adding this. Symbol sorting sometimes shows
multiple entries for the unknown bucket:

...
    16.65%  [.] 0x6cd3a8
     7.25%  [.] 0x422460
     5.37%  [.] yylex
     4.79%  [.] malloc
     4.78%  [.] _int_malloc
     4.03%  [.] _int_free
     3.95%  [.] hash_source_code_string
     2.82%  [.] 0x532908
     2.64%  [.] 0x36b538
     0.94%  [H] 0x8000000000e132a4
     0.82%  [H] 0x800000000000e8b0

This happens because we aren't consistent with our sorting. On
one hand we check to see if both symbols match and for two unresolved
samples sym is NULL so we match:

        if (left->ms.sym == right->ms.sym)
                return 0;

On the other hand we use sample IP for unresolved samples when
comparing against a symbol:

       ip_l = left->ms.sym ? left->ms.sym->start : left->ip;
       ip_r = right->ms.sym ? right->ms.sym->start : right->ip;

This means unresolved samples end up spread across the rbtree and we
can't merge them all.

If we use cmp_null all unresolved samples will end up in the one bucket
and the output makes more sense:

...
    39.12%  [.] 0x36b538
     5.37%  [.] yylex
     4.79%  [.] malloc
     4.78%  [.] _int_malloc
     4.03%  [.] _int_free
     3.95%  [.] hash_source_code_string
     2.26%  [H] 0x800000000000e8b0

perf-record currently creates events enabled. When doing a system wide
collection (-a arg) this causes data collection for perf's
initialization activities -- eg., perf_event__synthesize_threads().

For some events (e.g., context switch S/W event or tracepoints like
syscalls) perf's initialization causes a lot of events to be captured
frequently generating "Check IO/CPU overload!" warnings on larger
systems (e.g., 2 socket, quad core, hyperthreading).

perf's initialization phase can be skipped by creating events
disabled and then enabling them once the initialization is done.
