[PATCH RFC 02/15] cacheinfo: Expose the code to generate a cache-id from a device_node
From: Yin Li
Date: Tue Aug 11 2026 - 09:39:56 EST
From: James Morse <james.morse@xxxxxxx>
The MPAM driver identifies caches by id for use with resctrl. It
needs to know the cache-id when probe-ing, but the value isn't set
in cacheinfo until device_initcall(). Even after device_initcall(),
the cache-id is only available if at least one CPU associated with
the cache is online.
Instead of making the driver wait, expose the code that generates the
cache-id. The parts of the MPAM driver that run early can use this to
set up the resctrl structures before cacheinfo is ready in
device_initcall().

[ Yin Li: fix context conflicts in cacheinfo.c and cacheinfo.h; guard the
cache_of_calculate_id() declaration with CONFIG_OF to prevent build
errors when CONFIG_OF is not set ]
