Subject: [PATCH v2 00/24] x86/resctrl: Merge the CDP resources

Hi folks,

Thanks to Reinette and Jamie for the comments on v1. Major changes in v2 are
to keep the closid in resctrl_arch_update_domains(), eliminating one patch,
splitting another that was making two sorts of change, and to re-order the
first few patches. See each patches changelog for more.
----

This series re-folds the resctrl code so the CDP resources (L3CODE et al)
behaviour is all contained in the filesystem parts, with a minimum amount
of arch specific code.

Arm have some CPU support for dividing caches into portions, and
applying bandwidth limits at various points in the SoC. The collective term
for these features is MPAM: Memory Partitioning and Monitoring.

MPAM is similar enough to Intel RDT, that it should use the defacto linux
interface: resctrl. This filesystem currently lives under arch/x86, and is
tightly coupled to the architecture.
Ultimately, my plan is to split the existing resctrl code up to have an
arch<->fs abstraction, then move all the bits out to fs/resctrl. From there
MPAM can be wired up.

x86 might have two resources with cache controls, (L2 and L3) but has
extra copies for CDP: L{2,3}{CODE,DATA}, which are marked as enabled
if CDP is enabled for the corresponding cache.

MPAM has an equivalent feature to CDP, but its a property of the CPU,
not the cache. Resctrl needs to have x86's odd/even behaviour, as that
its the ABI, but this isn't how the MPAM hardware works. It is entirely
possible that an in-kernel user of MPAM would not be using CDP, whereas
resctrl is.
Pretending L3CODE and L3DATA are entirely separate resources is a neat
trick, but doing this is specific to x86.
Doing this leaves the arch code in control of various parts of the
filesystem ABI: the resources names, and the way the schemata are parsed.
Allowing this stuff to vary between architectures is bad for user space.

This series collapses the CODE/DATA resources, moving all the user-visible
resctrl ABI into what becomes the filesystem code. CDP becomes the type of
configuration being applied to a cache. This is done by adding a
struct resctrl_schema to the parts of resctrl that will move to fs. This
holds the arch-code resource that is in use for this schema, along with
other properties like the name, and whether the configuration being applied
is CODE/DATA/BOTH.

This lets us fold the extra resources out of the arch code so that they
don't need to be duplicated if the equivalent feature to CDP is missing, or
implemented in a different way.


The first two patches split the resource and domain structs to have an
arch specific 'hw' portion, and the rest that is visible to resctrl.
Future series massage the resctrl code so there are no accesses to 'hw'
structures in the parts of resctrl that will move to fs, providing helpers
where necessary.

This series adds temporary scaffolding, which it removes a few patches
later. This is to allow things like the ctrlval arrays and resources to be
merged separately, which should make is easier to bisect. These things
are marked temporary, and should all be gone by the end of the series.

This series is a little rough around the monitors, would a fake
struct resctrl_schema for the monitors simplify things, or be a source
of bugs?

This series is based on v5.12-rc2, and can be retrieved from:

v1 was posted here:

Subject: [PATCH v2 23/24] x86/resctrl: Remove rdt_cdp_peer_get()

Now that the configuration can be read from either CDP peer,
rdt_cdp_peer_get() is not needed to to map the resource and search for the
corresponding domain.

As __rdtgroup_cbm_overlaps() takes the configuration type from the schema,
this can be replaced with a second call for the other configuration type
if cdp is enabled.

Subject: [PATCH v2 06/24] x86/resctrl: Walk the resctrl schema list instead of an arch list

Once the arch code is abstracted from the resctrl filesystem code
the separate schema for CDP are created by the filesystem code. This
means the same resource is used for different schema, or types of
configuration.

Helpers like rdtgroup_cbm_overlaps() need the resctrl_schema to
retrieve the configuration (or configurations). Before these
helpers can be changed to take the schema instead of the resource,
their callers must have the schema on hand.

Change the users of for_each_alloc_enabled_rdt_resource() to walk
the schema instead. Schema were only created for alloc_enabled resources
so these two lists are currently equivalent.

schemata_list_create() and rdt_kill_sb() are ignored. The first
creates the schema list, and will eventually loop over the resource
indexes using an arch helper to retrieve the resource. rdt_kill_sb()
will eventually make use of an arch 'reset everything' helper.

After the filesystem code is moved, rdtgroup_pseudo_locked_in_hierarchy()
remains part of the x86 specific hooks to support psuedo lock. This code
walks each domain, and still does this after the separate resources are
merged.

Subject: [PATCH v2 21/24] x86/resctrl: Calculate the index from the configuration type

resctrl uses cbm_idx() to map a closid to an index in the
configuration array. This is based on a multiplier and offset
that are held in the resource.

To merge the resources, the resctrl arch code needs to calculate
the index from something else, as there will only be one resource.

Decide based on the staged configuration type. This makes the
static mult and offset parameters redundant.

Subject: [PATCH v2 24/24] x86/resctrl: Merge the CDP resources

Now that resctrl uses the schema's configuration type is the source of
CODE/DATA configuration styles, and there is only one configuration
array between the three views of the resource, remove the CODE and DATA
aliases.

This allows the alloc_ctrlval_array() and complications around free()ing
the ctrl_val arrays to be removed.

To continue providing the CDP user-interface, the resctrl filesystem
code creates two schema for one resource when CDP is enabled, and
generates the names itself. This ensures the user interface is the
same when another architecture emulates CDPs behaviour.

Changes since v1:
* rdt_get_cdp_config() is kept for its comment.

I applied your patches on my AMD box. Seeing some difference in the behavior.

Before these patches.

# dmesg |grep -i resctrl
[ 13.076973] resctrl: L3 allocation detected
[ 13.087835] resctrl: L3DATA allocation detected
[ 13.092886] resctrl: L3CODE allocation detected
[ 13.097936] resctrl: MB allocation detected
[ 13.102599] resctrl: L3 monitoring detected


After the patches.

# dmesg |grep -i resctrl
[ 13.076973] resctrl: L3 allocation detected
[ 13.097936] resctrl: MB allocation detected
[ 13.102599] resctrl: L3 monitoring detected

You can see that L3DATA and L3CODE disappeared. I think we should keep the
behavior same for x86(at least).



I am still not clear why we needed resctrl_conf_type

enum resctrl_conf_type {
CDP_BOTH,
CDP_CODE,
CDP_DATA,
};

Right now, I see all the resources are initialized as CDP_BOTH.

[RDT_RESOURCE_L3] =
{
.conf_type = CDP_BOTH,
[RDT_RESOURCE_L2] =
{
.conf_type = CDP_BOTH,
[RDT_RESOURCE_MBA] =
{
.conf_type = CDP_BOTH,

If all the resources are CDP_BOTH, then why we need separate CDP_CODE and
CDP_DATA? Are these going to be different for ARM?

Also initializing RDT_RESOURCE_MBA as CDP_BOTH does not seem right. I dont
think there will CDP support in MBA in future.

Currently equivalent? Does this mean that at some point they will not be

Please elaborate on what "eventually" means here. It does not seem to

This is the kernel log ... what user-space software is parsing that for an expected value?
What happens if the resctrl strings have been overwritten by more kernel log?

I don't think user-space should be relying on this. I'd argue any user-space doing this is
already broken. Is it just the kernel selftest's filter_dmesg()? It doesn't seem to do
anything useful

Whether resctrl is support can be read from /proc/filesystems. CDP is probably a
try-it-and-see. User-space could parse /proc/cpuinfo, but its probably not a good idea.


Its easy to fix, but it seems odd that the kernel has to print things for user-space to
try and parse. (I'd like to point at the user-space software that depends on this)

Ah, those should have been removed in patch 24. Once all the resources are the same, the
resource doesn't need to describe what kind it is.


> If all the resources are CDP_BOTH, then why we need separate CDP_CODE and
> CDP_DATA?

The filesystem code for resctrl that will eventually move out of arch/x86 needs to be able
to describe the type of configuration change being made back to the arch code. The enum
gets used for that.

x86 needs this as it affects which MSRs the configuration value is written to.


> Are these going to be different for ARM?

Nope. Arm's MPAM ends up emulating CDP with the closid values that get applied to
transactions.

Its not code or data, which makes it both. 'BOTH' is more of a 'do nothing special', there
may be a better name, but I'm not very good at naming things. (any suggestions?)

Yes. Agree. Looking at the dmesg may no be right way to figure out all the
support details. As a normal practice, I searched for these texts and
noticed difference. That is why I felt it is best to keep those texts same
as before.

I dont think there is any software that parses the dmesg for these
details. These are info messages for the developers.

The kernel log changes all the time, messages at boot aren't something you can depend on
seeing later. Unless there is some user-space software broken by this, I'm afraid I don't
think its a good idea to add extra code to keep it the same.

Printing 'CDP supported by Lx' would be more useful to developers perusing the log. Even
more useful would be exposing feature attributes via sysfs to say what resctrl supports
without having to mount-it-and-see. This can then be used by user-space too.
e.g.:
| cat /sys/fs/ext4/features/fast_commit
