Right you are,

the tool is called 'trace-cmd record -e kvm ...' / 'trace-cmd report'
but I always thought it's not any different from looking at
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace directly. Apparently I was wrong. 'cat
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace' seems to be OK, e.g.:

qemu-system-x86-20263 [006] .... 75982.292657: kvm_nested_vmexit: vcpu 0 reason hypercall rip 0x40122f info1 0x0000000000000000 info2 0x0000000000000000 intr_info 0x00000000 error_code 0x00000000
