perf kvm: Option to print events that exceed a duration
This is useful to spot high latency blips. It is normal for HLT reasons to have long exit times, so strip those from the duration check. v2: changed threshold to duration per acme's request Signed-off-by: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Runzhen Wang <runzhen@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1375926999-75129-1-git-send-email-dsahern@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
