Before beginning the profiling on the guest OS, the following files must be copied on the host machine to facilitate symbol resolution for the guest VMs:

  1. Copy /proc/kallsyms and /proc/modules from the guest OS to the host machine.
  2. Copy guest vmlinux and kernel sources in a folder on the host system.

These files should belong to the guest VM whose PID is provided as an argument to --guest-kvm option.
