x86,fs/resctrl: Move the resctrl filesystem code to live in /fs/resctrl

2025-05-16T12:36:09+00:00

Resctrl is a filesystem interface to hardware that provides cache
allocation policy and bandwidth control for groups of tasks or CPUs.

To support more than one architecture, resctrl needs to live in /fs/.

Move the code that is concerned with the filesystem interface to
/fs/resctrl.

x86/resctrl: Split trace.h

2025-05-16T08:47:49+00:00

trace.h contains all the tracepoints. After the move to /fs/resctrl, some
of these will be left behind. All the pseudo_lock tracepoints remain part
of the architecture. The lone tracepoint in monitor.c moves to /fs/resctrl.

Split trace.h so that each C file includes a different trace header file.
This means the trace header files are not modified when they are moved.

x86/resctrl: Allow an architecture to disable pseudo lock

2025-03-12T11:24:25+00:00

Pseudo-lock relies on knowledge of the micro-architecture to disable
prefetchers etc.

On arm64 these controls are typically secure only, meaning Linux can't access
them. Arm's cache-lockdown feature works in a very different way. Resctrl's
pseudo-lock isn't going to be used on arm64 platforms.

Add a Kconfig symbol that can be selected by the architecture. This enables or
disables building of the pseudo_lock.c file, and replaces the functions with
stubs. An additional IS_ENABLED() check is needed in rdtgroup_mode_write() so
that attempting to enable pseudo-lock reports an "Unknown or unsupported mode"
to user-space via the last_cmd_status file.

x86/resctrl: Avoid confusion over the new X86_RESCTRL config

2019-02-02T09:34:52+00:00

"Resource Control" is a very broad term for this CPU feature, and a term
that is also associated with containers, cgroups etc. This can easily
cause confusion.

Make the user prompt more specific. Match the config symbol name.

 [ bp: In the future, the corresponding ARM arch-specific code will be
   under ARM_CPU_RESCTRL and the arch-agnostic bits will be carved out
   under the CPU_RESCTRL umbrella symbol. ]

x86/cache: Rename config option to CONFIG_X86_RESCTRL

2019-01-09T09:29:03+00:00

CONFIG_RESCTRL is too generic. The final goal is to have a generic
option called like this which is selected by the arch-specific ones
CONFIG_X86_RESCTRL and CONFIG_ARM64_RESCTRL. The generic one will
cover the resctrl filesystem and other generic and shared bits of
functionality.

x86/resctrl: Rename the config option INTEL_RDT to RESCTRL

2018-11-22T19:16:19+00:00

The resource control feature is supported by both Intel and AMD. So,
rename CONFIG_INTEL_RDT to the vendor-neutral CONFIG_RESCTRL.

Now CONFIG_RESCTRL will be used for both Intel and AMD to enable
Resource Control support. Update the texts in config and condition
accordingly.

 [ bp: Simplify Kconfig text. ]

x86/resctrl: Rename and move rdt files to a separate directory

2018-11-22T19:16:18+00:00

New generation of AMD processors add support for RDT (or QOS) features.
Together, these features will be called RESCTRL. With more than one
vendors supporting these features, it seems more appropriate to rename
these files.

Create a new directory with the name 'resctrl' and move all the
intel_rdt files to the new directory. This way all the resctrl related
code resides inside one directory.

 [ bp: Add SPDX identifier to the Makefile ]
