0e70939037 Revert "selftests/resctrl: Use resctrl/info for feature detection"
This reverts commit 19eaad1400 which is
ee0415681eb661efa1eb2db7acc263f2c7df1e23 upstream.

This commit is not a stable candidate and was backported without needed
dependencies that results in the resctrl tests unable to compile.

19eaad1400 selftests/resctrl: Use resctrl/info for feature detection
[ Upstream commit ee0415681eb661efa1eb2db7acc263f2c7df1e23 ]

Resctrl test suite before running any unit test (like cmt, cat, mbm and
mba) should first check if the feature is enabled (by kernel and not just
supported by H/W) on the platform or not.
validate_resctrl_feature_request() is supposed to do that. This function
intends to grep for relevant flags in /proc/cpuinfo but there are several
issues here

1. validate_resctrl_feature_request() calls fgrep() to get flags from
   /proc/cpuinfo. But, fgrep() can only return a string with maximum of 255
   characters and hence the complete cpu flags are never returned.
2. The substring search logic is also busted. If strstr() finds requested
   resctrl feature in the cpu flags, it returns pointer to the first
   occurrence. But, the logic negates the return value of strstr() and
   hence validate_resctrl_feature_request() returns false if the feature is
   present in the cpu flags and returns true if the feature is not present.
3. validate_resctrl_feature_request() checks if a resctrl feature is
   reported in /proc/cpuinfo flags or not. Having a cpu flag means that the
   H/W supports the feature, but it doesn't mean that the kernel enabled
   it. A user could selectively enable only a subset of resctrl features
   using kernel command line arguments. Hence, /proc/cpuinfo isn't a
   reliable source to check if a feature is enabled or not.

The 3rd issue being the major one and fixing it requires changing the way
validate_resctrl_feature_request() works. Since, /proc/cpuinfo isn't the
right place to check if a resctrl feature is enabled or not, a more
appropriate place is /sys/fs/resctrl/info directory. Change
validate_resctrl_feature_request() such that,

1. For cat, check if /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3 directory is present or not
2. For mba, check if /sys/fs/resctrl/info/MB directory is present or not
3. For cmt, check if /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3_MON directory is present and
   check if /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3_MON/mon_features has llc_occupancy
4. For mbm, check if /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3_MON directory is present and
   check if /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3_MON/mon_features has
   mbm_<total/local>_bytes

Please note that only L3_CAT, L3_CMT, MBA and MBM are supported. CDP and L2
variants can be added later.

cd29eef127 selftests/resctrl: Clean up resctrl features check
[ Upstream commit 2428673638ea28fa93d2a38b1c3e8d70122b00ee ]

Checking resctrl features call strcmp() to compare feature strings
(e.g. "mba", "cat" etc). The checkings are error prone and don't have
good coding style. Define the constant strings in macros and call
strncmp() to solve the potential issues.

cf99daf7c3 selftests/resctrl: Fix compilation issues for global variables
[ Upstream commit 8236c51d85a64643588505a6791e022cc8d84864 ]

Reinette reported following compilation issue on Fedora 32, gcc version
10.1.1

/usr/bin/ld: cqm_test.o:<src_dir>/cqm_test.c:22: multiple definition of
`cache_size'; cat_test.o:<src_dir>/cat_test.c:23: first defined here

The same issue is reported for long_mask, cbm_mask, count_of_bits etc
variables as well. Compiler isn't happy because these variables are
defined globally in two .c files namely cqm_test.c and cat_test.c and
the compiler during compilation finds that the variable is already
defined (multiple definition error).

Taking a closer look at the usage of these variables reveals that these
variables are used only locally in functions such as cqm_resctrl_val()
(defined in cqm_test.c) and cat_perf_miss_val() (defined in cat_test.c).
These variables are not shared between those functions. So, there is no
need for these variables to be global. Hence, fix this issue by making
them static variables.

790bf585b0 selftests/resctrl: Add Cache Allocation Technology (CAT) selftest
Cache Allocation Technology (CAT) selftest allocates a portion of
last level cache and starts a benchmark to read each cache
line in this portion of cache. Measure the cache misses in perf and
the misses should be equal to the number of cache lines in this
portion of cache.

We don't use CQM to calculate cache usage because some CAT enabled
platforms don't have CQM.

ecdbb911f2 selftests/resctrl: Add MBM test
MBM (Memory Bandwidth Monitoring) test is the first implemented selftest.
It starts a stressful memory bandwidth benchmark and assigns the
bandwidth pid in a resctrl monitoring group. Read and compare perf IMC
counter and MBM total bytes for the benchmark. The numbers should be
close enough to pass the test.

Default benchmark is built-in fill_buf. But users can specify their
own benchmark by option "-b".

We can add memory bandwidth monitoring for multiple processes in the
future.
