On powerpc, kvm tracks both the guest steal time as well as the time when guest was idle and this gets sent in to the guest through DTL. The guest accounts these entries as either steal time or idle time based on the last running task. Since the true guest idle status is not visible to the host, we can't accurately report the guest steal time in the host. However, tracking the guest vcpu cede status can get us a reasonable (within 5% variation) vcpu steal time since guest vcpus cede the processor on entering the idle task. To do this, we introduce a new field ceded_st in kvm_vcpu_arch structure to accurately track the guest vcpu cede status (this is needed since the existing ceded field is modified before we can use it). During DTL entry creation, we check this flag and account the time as stolen if the guest vcpu had not ceded. Tests show that the steal time being reported in the host with this approach is around 5% higher than the steal time shown in guest. Please suggest if there are ways to get more accurate steal time information in the host. Signed-off-by: Naveen N.
