<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit c2427e70c1630d98966375fffc2b713ab9768a94 ]

The mba_MBps feedback loop increases throttling when a group is using
more bandwidth than the target set by the user in the schemata file, and
decreases throttling when below target.

To avoid possibly stepping throttling up and down on every poll a flag
"delta_comp" is set whenever throttling is changed to indicate that the
actual change in bandwidth should be recorded on the next poll in
"delta_bw". Throttling is only reduced if the current bandwidth plus
delta_bw is below the user target.

This algorithm works well if the workload has steady bandwidth needs.
But it can go badly wrong if the workload moves to a different phase
just as the throttling level changed. E.g. if the workload becomes
essentially idle right as throttling level is increased, the value
calculated for delta_bw will be more or less the old bandwidth level.
If the workload then resumes, Linux may never reduce throttling because
current bandwidth plus delta_bw is above the target set by the user.

Implement a simpler heuristic by assuming that in the worst case the
currently measured bandwidth is being controlled by the current level of
throttling. Compute how much it may increase if throttling is relaxed to
the next higher level. If that is still below the user target, then it
is ok to reduce the amount of throttling.

<title>x86/resctrl: Read supported bandwidth sources from CPUID</title>

[ Upstream commit 54e35eb8611cce5550d3d7689679b1a91c864f28 ]

If the BMEC (Bandwidth Monitoring Event Configuration) feature is
supported, the bandwidth events can be configured. The maximum supported
bandwidth bitmask can be read from CPUID:

  CPUID_Fn80000020_ECX_x03 [Platform QoS Monitoring Bandwidth Event Configuration]
  Bits    Description
  31:7    Reserved
   6:0    Identifies the bandwidth sources that can be tracked.

While at it, move the mask checking to mon_config_write() before
iterating over all the domains. Also, print the valid bitmask when the
user tries to configure invalid event configuration value.

The CPUID details are documented in the Processor Programming Reference
(PPR) Vol 1.1 for AMD Family 19h Model 11h B1 - 55901 Rev 0.25 in the
Link tag.

<title>x86/resctrl: Display RMID of resource group</title>

In x86, hardware uses RMID to identify a monitoring group. When a user
creates a monitor group these details are not visible. These details
can help resctrl debugging.

Add RMID(mon_hw_id) to the monitor groups display in the resctrl interface.
Users can see these details when resctrl is mounted with "-o debug" option.

Add RFTYPE_MON_BASE that complements existing RFTYPE_CTRL_BASE and
represents files belonging to monitoring groups.

Other architectures do not use "RMID". Use the name mon_hw_id to refer
to "RMID" in an effort to keep the naming generic.

For example:
  $cat /sys/fs/resctrl/mon_groups/mon_grp1/mon_hw_id

resctrl associates rftype flags with its files so that files can be chosen
based on the resource, whether it is info or base, and if it is control
or monitor type file. These flags use the RF_ as well as RFTYPE_ prefixes.

Change the prefix to RFTYPE_ for all these flags to be consistent.

The rftype flags are bitmaps used for adding files under the resctrl
filesystem. Some of these bitmap defines have one extra level of
indirection which is not necessary.

Drop the RF_* defines and simplify the macros.

<title>x86/resctrl: Enable non-contiguous CBMs in Intel CAT</title>

The setting for non-contiguous 1s support in Intel CAT is
hardcoded to false. On these systems, writing non-contiguous
1s into the schemata file will fail before resctrl passes
the value to the hardware.

In Intel CAT CPUID.0x10.1:ECX[3] and CPUID.0x10.2:ECX[3] stopped
being reserved and now carry information about non-contiguous 1s
value support for L3 and L2 cache respectively. The CAT
capacity bitmask (CBM) supports a non-contiguous 1s value if
the bit is set.

The exception are Haswell systems where non-contiguous 1s value
support needs to stay disabled since they can't make use of CPUID
for Cache allocation.

<title>x86/resctrl: Clear staged_config[] before and after it is used</title>

<id>0424a7dfe9129b93f29b277511a60e87f052ac6b</id>
<content type='text'>
As a temporary storage, staged_config[] in rdt_domain should be cleared
before and after it is used. The stale value in staged_config[] could
cause an MSR access error.

Here is a reproducer on a system with 16 usable CLOSIDs for a 15-way L3
Cache (MBA should be disabled if the number of CLOSIDs for MB is less than
16.) :
	mount -t resctrl resctrl -o cdp /sys/fs/resctrl
	mkdir /sys/fs/resctrl/p{1..7}
	umount /sys/fs/resctrl/
	mount -t resctrl resctrl /sys/fs/resctrl
	mkdir /sys/fs/resctrl/p{1..8}

An error occurs when creating resource group named p8:
    unchecked MSR access error: WRMSR to 0xca0 (tried to write 0x00000000000007ff) at rIP: 0xffffffff82249142 (cat_wrmsr+0x32/0x60)
    Call Trace:
     &lt;IRQ&gt;
     __flush_smp_call_function_queue+0x11d/0x170
     __sysvec_call_function+0x24/0xd0
     sysvec_call_function+0x89/0xc0
     &lt;/IRQ&gt;
     &lt;TASK&gt;
     asm_sysvec_call_function+0x16/0x20

When creating a new resource control group, hardware will be configured
by the following process:
    rdtgroup_mkdir()
      rdtgroup_mkdir_ctrl_mon()
        rdtgroup_init_alloc()
          resctrl_arch_update_domains()

resctrl_arch_update_domains() iterates and updates all resctrl_conf_type
whose have_new_ctrl is true. Since staged_config[] holds the same values as
when CDP was enabled, it will continue to update the CDP_CODE and CDP_DATA
configurations. When group p8 is created, get_config_index() called in
resctrl_arch_update_domains() will return 16 and 17 as the CLOSIDs for
CDP_CODE and CDP_DATA, which will be translated to an invalid register -
0xca0 in this scenario.

Fix it by clearing staged_config[] before and after it is used.

<title>x86/resctrl: Add interface to read mbm_total_bytes_config</title>

The event configuration can be viewed by the user by reading the
configuration file /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3_MON/mbm_total_bytes_config.  The
event configuration settings are domain specific and will affect all the CPUs in
the domain.

Following are the types of events supported:

  ====  ===========================================================
  Bits   Description
  ====  ===========================================================
  6      Dirty Victims from the QOS domain to all types of memory
  5      Reads to slow memory in the non-local NUMA domain
  4      Reads to slow memory in the local NUMA domain
  3      Non-temporal writes to non-local NUMA domain
  2      Non-temporal writes to local NUMA domain
  1      Reads to memory in the non-local NUMA domain
  0      Reads to memory in the local NUMA domain
  ====  ===========================================================

By default, the mbm_total_bytes_config is set to 0x7f to count all the
event types.

For example:

  $cat /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3_MON/mbm_total_bytes_config
  0=0x7f;1=0x7f;2=0x7f;3=0x7f

In this case, the event mbm_total_bytes is configured with 0x7f on
domains 0 to 3.
