Thomas Gleixner 9fc975e9ef x86/kvm/svm: Add hardirq tracing on guest enter/exit
Entering guest mode is more or less the same as returning to user
space. From an instrumentation point of view both leave kernel mode and the
transition to guest or user mode reenables interrupts on the host. In user
mode an interrupt is served directly and in guest mode it causes a VM exit
which then handles or reinjects the interrupt.

The transition from guest mode or user mode to kernel mode disables
interrupts, which needs to be recorded in instrumentation to set the
correct state again.

This is important for e.g. latency analysis because otherwise the execution
time in guest or user mode would be wrongly accounted as interrupt disabled
and could trigger false positives.

Add hardirq tracing to guest enter/exit functions in the same way as it
is done in the user mode enter/exit code, respecting the RCU requirements.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
