[PATCH v17 0/9] Add support for Sub-NUMA cluster (SNC) systems

[Tony Luck]

Note: Jump straight to patch 7 for the new stuff. Just minor tweaks in
other patches.

This series based on top of TIP x86/cache branch:
 931be446c6cb ("x86/resctrl: Add tracepoint for llc_occupancy tracking")

The Sub-NUMA cluster feature on some Intel processors partitions the CPUs
that share an L3 cache into two or more sets. This plays havoc with the
Resource Director Technology (RDT) monitoring features.  Prior to this
patch Intel has advised that SNC and RDT are incompatible.

Some of these CPUs support an MSR that can partition the RMID counters
in the same way. This allows monitoring features to be used. Legacy
monitoring files provide the sum of counters from each SNC node for
backwards compatibility. Additional  files per SNC node provide details
per node.

Cache and memory bandwidth allocation features continue to operate at
the scope of the L3 cache.

Changes since v16: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240312214247.91772-1-tony.luck@xxxxxxxxx/

Patch 1: Reinette pointed out that rdt_find_domain() no longer returns ERR_PTR()
but one of the callers was still checking return with IS_ERR().

Patch 2: Tip tree added a tracing patch. That needed s/d->id/d->hdr.id/

Patch 3: Reinette: Keep the "RCU" in the kerneldoc description of the
domain list fields after the split into separate ctrl/mon lists.

Patch 4: No change

Patch 5: No change

Patch 6: Drop the change that divided output of the resctrl "size" file
by the number of SNC domains per L3 cache. Now that this series
preserves the contents of the legacy llc_occupancy files this isn't
useful.

Patch 7: NEW in this series. Add per-SNC domain monitor files while
making the original files sum across SNC nodes.

Patch 8: (formerly 7) No change

Patch 9: (formerly 8) Add documentation for new per-SNC directories and files
