I am trying to add a trace marker and the data is coming out all 0's. e.g.,

0 (+ 0) PTE_WRITE vcpu = 0x00000001 pid = 0x0000240d [ gpa =
0x00000000 00000000 gpte = 0x00000000 00000000 ]

Patch is attached. I know the data is non-zero as I added an if check before calling the trace to only do the trace if the data is non-zero. Anyone have suggestions on what I am missing?

thanks,

david

You mistake the value, right?

You mistake the value, right?

Which value? Do you mean the 0x00020015 and0x00020016?

kvm.h shows KVM_TRC_APIC_ACCESS as KVM_TRC_HANDLER + 0x14. I added the PTE_WRITE and PTE_FLOODED after that in kvm.h with the values 0x15 and 0x16. Then in the formats file it shows APIC_ACCESS as 0x00020014, and I added the new PTE entries after that as 20015 and 20016. The kvmtrace_format tool does show those lines in its output which makes me believe these values are ok.

What has me puzzled is the 0 values for gpa and gpte. I believe they are not 0 because I added "if (gpa || gpte) before the KVMTRACE_4D(PTE_WRITE, ...) line and the lines still show up in the trace output.

I mean the value of PTE_WRITE you write in the formats file ( 0x00020016 )should be same with KVM_TRC_PTE_WRITE you define in kvm.h, but now it is 0x00020015. if not what you get in the text file will be disordered.

DOH. I had the 2 new ones backwards in the formats file.
