Hi everyone,
I am using libvirt 2.5.0. I'd like to enable the "perf events" to
monitoring my vm performance such as l3 cache. But it failed with "error:
argument unsupported: unable to enable host cpu perf event for cmt".
1. Could you please give some hints on how to check if my host CPU supports
cmt,mbm, is it displayed in /proc/cpuinfo?
It would be listed by 'virsh capabilities' as 'cmt', or in /proc/cpuinfo
as 'cqm'.
You need pretty particular CPU models too - many Intel models don't
support this even brand new ones.
2. Does the kernel version matters as well to support it?
Yes, but I don't recall which version
Regards,
Daniel
