"This update provides updates to RDT:
- A diagnostic framework for the Resource Director Technology (RDT)
user interface (sysfs). The failure modes of the user interface are
hard to diagnose from the error codes. An extra last command status
file provides now sensible textual information about the failure so
its simpler to use.
- A few minor cleanups and updates in the RDT code"

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

Commands are given to the resctrl file system by making/removing
directories, or by writing to files. When something goes wrong
the user is generally left wondering why they got:
bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
Add a new file "last_cmd_status" to the "info" directory that
will give the user some better clues on what went wrong.
Provide functions to clear and update last_cmd_status which
check that we hold the rdtgroup_mutex.
[ tglx: Made last_cmd_status static and folded back the hunk from patch 3
which replaces the open coded access to last_cmd_status with the
accessor function ]

During a mkdir, the entire limbo list is synchronously checked on each
package for free RMIDs by sending IPIs. With a large number of RMIDs (SKL
has 192) this creates a intolerable amount of work in IPIs.
Replace the IPI based checking of the limbo list with asynchronous worker
threads on each package which periodically scan the limbo list and move the
RMIDs that have:
llc_occupancy < threshold_occupancy
on all packages to the free list.
mkdir now returns -ENOSPC if the free list and the limbo list ere empty or
returns -EBUSY if there are RMIDs on the limbo list and the free list is
empty.
Getting rid of the IPIs also simplifies the data structures and the
serialization required for handling the lists.

CPUID.(EAX=0x10, ECX=res#):EBX[31:0] reports a bit mask for a resource.
Each set bit within the length of the CBM indicates the corresponding
unit of the resource allocation may be used by other entities in the
platform (e.g. an integrated graphics engine or hardware units outside
the processor core and have direct access to the resource). Each
cleared bit within the length of the CBM indicates the corresponding
allocation unit can be configured to implement a priority-based
allocation scheme without interference with other hardware agents in
the system. Bits outside the length of the CBM are reserved.
More details on the bit mask are described in x86 Software Developer's
Manual.
The bitmask is shown in "info" directory for each resource. It's
up to user to decide how to use the bitmask within a CBM in a partition
to share or isolate a resource with other executing units.

Add a mon_data directory for the root rdtgroup and all other rdtgroups.
The directory holds all of the monitored data for all domains and events
of all resources being monitored.
The mon_data itself has a list of directories in the format
mon_<domain_name>_<domain_id>. Each of these subdirectories contain one
file per event in the mode "0444". Reading the file displays a snapshot
of the monitored data for the event the file represents.
For ex, on a 2 socket Broadwell with llc_occupancy being
monitored the mon_data contents look as below:
$ ls /sys/fs/resctrl/p1/mon_data/
mon_L3_00
mon_L3_01
Each domain directory has one file per event:
$ ls /sys/fs/resctrl/p1/mon_data/mon_L3_00/
llc_occupancy
To read current llc_occupancy of ctrl_mon group p1
$ cat /sys/fs/resctrl/p1/mon_data/mon_L3_00/llc_occupancy
33789096
[This patch idea is based on Tony's sample patches to organise data in a
per domain directory and have one file per event (and use the fp->priv to
store mon data bits)]

Resource control groups can be created using mkdir in resctrl
fs(rdtgroup). In order to extend the resctrl interface to support
monitoring the control groups, extend the current mkdir to support
resource monitoring also.
This allows the rdtgroup created under the root directory to be able to
both control and monitor resources (ctrl_mon group). The ctrl_mon groups
are associated with one CLOSID like the legacy rdtgroups and one
RMID(Resource monitoring ID) as well. Hardware uses RMID to track the
resource usage. Once either of the CLOSID or RMID are exhausted, the
mkdir fails with -ENOSPC. If there are RMIDs in limbo list but not free
an -EBUSY is returned. User can also monitor a subset of the ctrl_mon
rdtgroup's tasks/cpus using the monitor groups. The monitor groups are
created using mkdir under the "mon_groups" directory in every ctrl_mon
group.
[Merged Tony's code: Removed a lot of common mkdir code, a fix to handling
of the list of the child rdtgroups and some cleanups in list
traversal. Also the changes to have similar alloc and free for CLOS/RMID
and return -EBUSY when RMIDs are in limbo and not free]

The info directory files and base files need to be different for each
resource like cache and Memory bandwidth. With in each resource, the
files would be further different for monitoring and ctrl. This leads to
a lot of different static array declarations given that we are adding
resctrl monitoring.
Simplify this to one common list of files and then declare a set of
flags to choose the files based on the resource, whether it is info or
base and if it is control type file. This is as a preparation to include
monitoring based info and base files.
No functional change.
[Vikas: Extended the flags to have few bits per category like resource,
info/base etc]

Hardware uses RMID(Resource monitoring ID) to keep track of each of the
RDT events associated with tasks. The number of RMIDs is dependent on
the SKU and is enumerated via CPUID. We add support to manage the RMIDs
which include managing the RMID allocation and reading LLC occupancy
for an RMID.
RMID allocation is managed by keeping a free list which is initialized
to all available RMIDs except for RMID 0 which is always reserved for
root group. RMIDs goto a limbo list once they are
freed since the RMIDs are still tagged to cache lines of the tasks which
were using them - thereby still having some occupancy. They continue to
be in limbo list until the occupancy < threshold_occupancy. The
threshold_occupancy is a user configurable value.
OS uses IA32_QM_CTR MSR to read the occupancy associated with an RMID
after programming the IA32_EVENTSEL MSR with the RMID.
