  * access_tracking_perf_test

  * Copyright (C) 2021, Google, Inc.
  *
  * This test measures the performance effects of KVM's access tracking.
  * Access tracking is driven by the MMU notifiers test_young, clear_young, and
  * clear_flush_young. These notifiers do not have a direct userspace API,
  * however the clear_young notifier can be triggered by marking a pages as idle
  * in /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap. This test leverages that mechanism to
  * enable access tracking on guest memory.
  *
  * To measure performance this test runs a VM with a configurable number of
  * vCPUs that each touch every page in disjoint regions of memory. Performance
  * is measured in the time it takes all vCPUs to finish touching their
  * predefined region.
  *
  * Note that a deterministic correctness test of access tracking is not possible
  * by using page_idle as it exists today. This is for a few reasons:
  *
  * 1. page_idle only issues clear_young notifiers, which lack a TLB flush. This
  *    means subsequent guest accesses are not guaranteed to see page table
  *    updates made by KVM until some time in the future.
  *
  * 2. page_idle only operates on LRU pages. Newly allocated pages are not
  *    immediately allocated to LRU lists. Instead they are held in a "pagevec",
  *    which is drained to LRU lists some time in the future. There is no
  *    userspace API to force this drain to occur.
  *
  * These limitations are worked around in this test by using a large enough
  * region of memory for each vCPU such that the number of translations cached in
  * the TLB and the number of pages held in pagevecs are a small fraction of the
  * overall workload. And if either of those conditions are not true (for example
  * in nesting, where TLB size is unlimited) this test will print a warning
  * rather than silently passing.
