What were you trying to do that didn't work?
In OpenShift Virtualization, I'm querying the metric 'kubevirt_vmi_vcpu_wait_seconds_total'. All values are 0.
When querying libvirt directly, I can confirm that the returned value is 0:
# virsh -r domstats centos9 | grep wait vcpu.0.wait=0 <-- vcpu.0.halt_wait_ns.sum=147337004989 vcpu.1.wait=0 <-- vcpu.1.halt_wait_ns.sum=163969618614
What is the impact of this issue to you?
Incorrect metrics for VMs.
Please provide the package NVR for which the bug is seen:
libvirt-10.0.0-6.7.el9_4.x86_64
qemu-kvm-8.2.0-11.el9_4.6.x86_64
kernel-5.14.0-427.37.1.el9_4.x86_64
How reproducible is this bug?:
100%
Steps to reproduce
- Using a RHEL 9.4 hypervisor, add the kernel cmdline option 'schedstats=enable'
- Run a VM and generate IO load.
- Check the vCPU wait stats: "virsh -r domstats VM_NAME |grep wait"
Expected results
IO wait correctly reported.
Actual results
IO wait is 0, however the kernel is reporting IO wait in the 'wait_sum' stat:
