2020-11-08KVM: selftests: Introduce the dirty log perf testBen Gardon1-0/+7
The dirty log perf test will time verious dirty logging operations (enabling dirty logging, dirtying memory, getting the dirty log, clearing the dirty log, and disabling dirty logging) in order to quantify dirty logging performance. This test can be used to inform future performance improvements to KVM's dirty logging infrastructure. This series was tested by running the following invocations on an Intel Skylake machine: dirty_log_perf_test -b 20m -i 100 -v 64 dirty_log_perf_test -b 20g -i 5 -v 4 dirty_log_perf_test -b 4g -i 5 -v 32 demand_paging_test -b 20m -v 64 demand_paging_test -b 20g -v 4 demand_paging_test -b 4g -v 32 All behaved as expected.

2020-11-08KVM: selftests: Simplify demand_paging_test with timespec_diff_nowBen Gardon1-2/+13
Add a helper function to get the current time and return the time since a given start time. Use that function to simplify the timekeeping in the demand paging test. This series was tested by running the following invocations on an Intel Skylake machine: dirty_log_perf_test -b 20m -i 100 -v 64 dirty_log_perf_test -b 20g -i 5 -v 4 dirty_log_perf_test -b 4g -i 5 -v 32 demand_paging_test -b 20m -v 64 demand_paging_test -b 20g -v 4 demand_paging_test -b 4g -v 32 All behaved as expected.

2020-03-18KVM: selftests: Rework timespec functions and usageAndrew Jones1-21/+16
The steal_time test's timespec stop condition was wrong and should have used the timespec functions instead to avoid being wrong, but timespec_diff had a strange interface. Rework all the timespec API and its use. Signed-off-by: Andrew Jones <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <[email protected]>
2020-03-16KVM: selftests: Introduce steal-time testAndrew Jones1-0/+15
The steal-time test confirms what is reported to the guest as stolen time is consistent with the run_delay reported for the VCPU thread on the host. Both x86_64 and AArch64 have the concept of steal/stolen time so this test is introduced for both architectures. While adding the test we ensure .gitignore has all tests listed (it was missing s390x/resets) and that the Makefile has all tests listed in alphabetical order (not really necessary, but it almost was already...). We also extend the common API with a new num-guest- pages call and a new timespec call. Signed-off-by: Andrew Jones <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <[email protected]>

2020-03-16KVM: selftests: Time guest demand pagingBen Gardon1-0/+20
In order to quantify demand paging performance, time guest execution during demand paging. Signed-off-by: Ben Gardon <[email protected]> [Move timespec-diff to test_util.h] Signed-off-by: Andrew Jones <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <[email protected]>
2020-03-16KVM: selftests: Add memory size parameter to the demand paging testBen Gardon1-0/+51
Add an argument to allow the demand paging test to work on larger and smaller guest sizes. Signed-off-by: Ben Gardon <[email protected]> [Rewrote parse_size() to simplify and provide user more flexibility as to how sizes are input. Also fixed size overflow assert.] Signed-off-by: Andrew Jones <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <[email protected]>
