[PATCH 9/9] x86/intel_rdt: Intel haswell Cache Allocation enumeration

From: Vikas Shivappa
Date: Thu Jun 25 2015 - 15:29:12 EST


Cache Allocation on hsw(haswell) needs to be enumerated separately as
HSW does not have support for CPUID enumeration for Cache Allocation.
Cache Allocation is only supported on certain HSW SKUs. This patch does
a probe test for hsw CPUs by writing a CLOSid(Class of service id) into
high 32 bits of IA32_PQR_MSR and see if the bits stick. The probe test
is only done after confirming that the CPU is HSW. Other HSW specific
quirks are:
- HSW requires the L3 cache bit mask to be at least two bits.
- Maximum CLOSids supported is always 4.
- Maximum bits support in cache bit mask is always 20.
