Demonstrations of kvm exit reasons, the Linux eBPF/bcc version.

Considering virtual machines' frequent exits can cause performance problems,
this tool aims to locate the frequent exited reasons and then find solutions
to reduce or even avoid the exit, by displaying the detail exit reasons and
the counts of each vm exit for all vms running on one physical machine.

Features of this tool
=====================

- Although there is a patch: [KVM: x86: add full vm-exit reason debug entries]
  (https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/kvm/patch/1555939499-30854-1-git-send-email-pizhenwei@bytedance.com/)
  trying to fill more vm-exit reason debug entries, just as the comments said,
  the code allocates lots of memory that may never be consumed, misses some
  arch-specific kvm causes, and can not do kernel aggregation. Instead bcc, as
  a user space tool, can implement all these functions more easily and flexibly.
- The bcc python logic could provide nice kernel aggregation and custom output,
  like collpasing all tids for one pid (e.i. one vm's qemu process id) with exit
  reasons sorted in descending order. For more information, see the following
  #USAGE message.
- The bpf in-kernel percpu_array and percpu_cache further improves performance.
  For more information, see the following #Help to understand.

=======

In view of the hardware-assisted virtualization technology of
different architectures, currently we only adapt on vmx in intel.
And the amd feature is on the road..

Help to understand
==================

We use a PERCPU_ARRAY: pcpuArrayA and a percpu_hash: hashA to collaboratively
store each kvm exit reason and its count. The reason is there exists a rule when
one vcpu exits and re-enters, it tends to continue to run on the same physical
cpu (pcpu as follows) as the last cycle, which is also called 'cache hit'. Thus
we turn to use a PERCPU_ARRAY to record the 'cache hit' situation to speed
things up; and for other cases, then use a percpu_hash.

BTW, we originally use a common hash to do this, with a u64(exit_reason)
key and a struct exit_info {tgid_pid, exit_reason} value. But due to
the big lock in bpf_hash, each updating is quite performance consuming.

Now imagine here is a pid_tgidA (vcpu A) exits and is going to run on
pcpuArrayA, the BPF code flow is as follows:

pid_tgidA keeps running on the same pcpu
                        //               \\
                       //                 \\
                      // Y               N \\
                     //                     \\
             a. cache_hit               b. cache_miss
(cacheA's pid_tgid matches pid_tgidA)        ||

[*Note*] we do not update the table in above "a.", in case the vcpu hit the same
pcpu again when exits next time, instead we only update until this pcpu is not
hitted by the same tgidpid(vcpu) again, which is in "b.*.a" and "b.*".
