[PATCH v14 18/24] arm,x86,fs/resctrl: Enumerate AET on every resctrl mount
From: Tony Luck
Date: Mon Oct 19 2026 - 17:02:35 EST
Application Energy Telemetry (AET) is enumerated only on the first mount of
the resctrl file system. A successful enumeration takes a reference on the
pmt_telemetry module that is never dropped. This is harmless only because
AET support requires pmt_telemetry to be built in.
In preparation for pmt_telemetry being built as a module, hold the module
reference only while resctrl is mounted. resctrl must then enumerate AET on
every mount and release everything obtained from pmt_telemetry on every
unmount.
Call resctrl_arch_pre_mount() on every mount attempt. Add
resctrl_arch_unmount() for the architecture to undo it after a failed mount
or on unmount. Serialize both hooks with each other and with the check that
resctrl is not already mounted, so that enumeration only happens while
resctrl is not mounted. Use a new mutex because the hooks take
cpus_read_lock(), which nests outside rdtgroup_mutex.
On x86, if AET was enumerated, unmount disables the AET events, returns the
telemetry data to pmt_telemetry, drops the module reference and removes
the AET monitoring domains. Cleanup at resctrl exit is no longer needed.
Do not re-enable an event group that was disabled during mount because the
system supports too few RMIDs for it. The same check would disable it again
on the next mount.
