<title>[tree-wide] finally take no_llseek out</title>

no_llseek had been defined to NULL two years ago, in commit 868941b14441
("fs: remove no_llseek")

To quote that commit,

  At -rc1 we'll need do a mechanical removal of no_llseek -

  git grep -l -w no_llseek | grep -v porting.rst | while read i; do
	sed -i '/\&lt;no_llseek\&gt;/d' $i
  done

  would do it.

Unfortunately, that hadn't been done.  Linus, could you do that now, so
that we could finally put that thing to rest? All instances are of the
form
	.llseek = no_llseek,
so it's obviously safe.

<title>x86/resctrl: Prepare for new Sub-NUMA Cluster (SNC) monitor files</title>

<content type='text'>
When SNC is enabled, monitoring data is collected at the SNC node granularity,
but must be reported at L3-cache granularity for backwards compatibility in
addition to reporting at the node level.

Add a "ci" field to the rdt_mon_domain structure to save the cache information
about the enclosing L3 cache for the domain.  This provides:

1) The cache id which is needed to compose the name of the legacy monitoring
   directory, and to determine which domains should be summed to provide
   L3-scoped data.

2) The shared_cpu_map which is needed to determine which CPUs can be used to
   read the RMID counters with the MSR interface.

This is the first step to an eventual goal of monitor reporting files like this
(for a system with two SNC nodes per L3):

  $ cd /sys/fs/resctrl/mon_data
  $ tree mon_L3_00
  mon_L3_00			&lt;- 00 here is L3 cache id
  ├── llc_occupancy		\  These files provide legacy support
  ├── mbm_local_bytes		 &gt; for non-SNC aware monitor apps
  ├── mbm_total_bytes		/  that expect data at L3 cache level
  ├── mon_sub_L3_00		&lt;- 00 here is SNC node id
  │   ├── llc_occupancy		\  These files are finer grained
  │   ├── mbm_local_bytes		 &gt; data from each SNC node
  │   └── mbm_total_bytes		/
  └── mon_sub_L3_01
      ├── llc_occupancy		\
      ├── mbm_local_bytes		 &gt; As above, but for node 1.
      └── mbm_total_bytes		/

The same rdt_domain structure is used for both control and monitor
functions. But this results in wasted memory as some of the fields are
only used by control functions, while most are only used for monitor
functions.

Split into separate rdt_ctrl_domain and rdt_mon_domain structures with
just the fields required for control and monitoring respectively.

Similar split of the rdt_hw_domain structure into rdt_hw_ctrl_domain
and rdt_hw_mon_domain.

Resctrl assumes that control and monitor operations on a resource are
performed at the same scope.

Prepare for systems that use different scope (specifically Intel needs
to split the RDT_RESOURCE_L3 resource to use L3 scope for cache control
and NODE scope for cache occupancy and memory bandwidth monitoring).

Create separate domain lists for control and monitor operations.

Note that errors during initialization of either control or monitor
functions on a domain would previously result in that domain being
excluded from both control and monitor operations. Now the domains are
allocated independently it is no longer required to disable both control
and monitor operations if either fail.

The rdt_domain structure is used for both control and monitor features.
It is about to be split into separate structures for these two usages
because the scope for control and monitoring features for a resource
will be different for future resources.

To allow for common code that scans a list of domains looking for a
specific domain id, move all the common fields ("list", "id", "cpu_mask")
into their own structure within the rdt_domain structure.

Resctrl resources operate on subsets of CPUs in the system with the
defining attribute of each subset being an instance of a particular
level of cache. E.g. all CPUs sharing an L3 cache would be part of the
same domain.

In preparation for features that are scoped at the NUMA node level,
change the code from explicit references to "cache_level" to a more
generic scope. At this point the only options for this scope are groups
of CPUs that share an L2 cache or L3 cache.

Clean up the error handling when looking up domains. Report invalid ids
before calling rdt_find_domain() in preparation for better messages when
scope can be other than cache scope. This means that rdt_find_domain()
will never return an error. So remove checks for error from the call sites.

Now only the pseudo-locking part uses tracepoints to do event tracking,
but other parts of resctrl may need new tracepoints. It is unnecessary
to create separate header files and define CREATE_TRACE_POINTS in
different c files which fragments the resctrl tracing.

Therefore, give the resctrl tracepoint header file a generic name to
support its use for tracepoints that are not specific to pseudo-locking.

No functional change.

Now only the pseudo-locking part uses tracepoints to do event tracking,
but other parts of resctrl may need new tracepoints. It is unnecessary
to create separate header files and define CREATE_TRACE_POINTS in
different c files which fragments the resctrl tracing.
