[PATCH 1/4] selftests/resctrl: Add MBA schemata info selftest
From: Richard Cheng
Date: Tue Jul 21 2026 - 23:07:35 EST
The existing MBA test is Intel-only: it validates the MB monitor against
the iMC PMU, which doesn't exist on ARM MPAM, so the MB allocation control
interface goes untested there.
Add a feature-gated MBA_SCHEMATA group. Its first case, MBA_SCHEMATA_INFO,
reads info/MB including bandwidth_gran, min_bandwidth, num_closids and the
default schemata through the resctrl filesystem and every domain resets to
the maximum.
resource_info_str_get() and resctrl_get_schemata() helpers are
implemented to assist the test.
