[PATCH V4 24/38] x86/intel_rdt: Support enter/exit of locksetup mode

From: Reinette Chatre
Date: Tue May 22 2018 - 14:40:57 EST


The locksetup mode is the way in which the user communicates that the
resource group will be used for a pseudo-locked region. Locksetup mode
should thus ensure that all restrictions on a resource group are met
before locksetup mode can be entered. The resource group should also be
configured to ensure that it cannot be modified in unsupported ways when
a pseudo-locked region.

Introduce the support where the request for entering locksetup mode can
be validated. This includes: CDP is not active, no cpus or tasks are
assigned to the resource group, monitoring is not in progress on the
resource group. Once the resource group is determined ready for a
pseudo-locked region it is configured to not allow future changes to
these properties.

+ * affect all cache allocations on particular domain.
+ * - Considering the previous, it may be possible to only
+ * expose one of the CDP resources to pseudo-locking and
+ * hide the other. For example, we could consider to only
+ * expose L3DATA and since the L3 cache is unified it is
+ * still possible to place instructions there are execute it.
+ * - If only one region is exposed to pseudo-locking we should
+ * still keep in mind that availability of a portion of cache
+ * for pseudo-locking should take into account both resources.
