Intel Processor Trace virtualization can be work in one of 2 possible modes: a. System-Wide mode (default): When the host configures Intel PT to collect trace packets of the entire system, it can leave the relevant VMX controls clear to allow VMX-specific packets to provide information across VMX transitions. KVM guest will not aware this feature in this mode and both host and KVM guest trace will output to host buffer. b. Host-Guest mode: Host can configure trace-packet generation while in VMX non-root operation for guests and root operation for native executing normally. Intel PT will be exposed to KVM guest in this mode, and the trace output to respective buffer of host and guest. In this mode, tht status of PT will be saved and disabled before VM-entry and restored after VM-exit if trace a virtual machine.
