[PATCH v4 0/8] qmp, hmp: statistics subsystem and KVM suport.
Posted by Paolo Bonzini 1 year, 10 months ago
This patchset adds QEMU support for querying fd-based KVM statistics.
This allows the user to analyze the behavior of the VM without access
to debugfs.

However, instead of adding an ad hoc command, the new QMP entry point
can be extended in the future to more statistics provider than KVM
(for example TCG, tap, or the block layer) and to more objects than
the VM and vCPUS (for example network interfaces or block devices).

Because the statistics exposed by KVM are not known at compile time,
the kernel interface also comes with an introspectable schema.  This
schema is exposed by the query-stats-schemas QMP command.

Patches 1 and 2 add the basic support, respectively the QMP command
and the KVM producer.

Patches 3 and 4 add a basic HMP implementation.  The first of the two
adds a basic filtering mechanism to the QMP command, which is then used
by HMP (which only shows vCPU statistics for the currently selected
guest CPU; this is consistent with other HMP commands and does not
flood the user with an overwhelming amount of output).

The remaining patches add more filtering, respectively by provider
and by the name of a statistic.

v3->v4:
- correctly handle errors from the callbacks (patch 1)
- renamed str_in_list to apply_str_list_filter (patch 3)
- handle empty filter early by avoiding the query altogether (patch 3, 7)

(patches 2/4/6/8 are identical to v3; patch 5 only has context changes)

Mark Kanda (3):
  qmp: Support for querying stats
  kvm: Support for querying fd-based stats
  hmp: add basic "info stats" implementation

Paolo Bonzini (5):
  qmp: add filtering of statistics by target vCPU
  qmp: add filtering of statistics by provider
  hmp: add filtering of statistics by provider
  qmp: add filtering of statistics by name
  hmp: add filtering of statistics by name
