[PATCH v6 11/16] selftests/resctrl: Simplify bandwidth report type handling

From: Ilpo Järvinen
Date: Fri Jun 07 2024 - 08:56:16 EST


bw_report is only needed for selecting the correct value from the
values IMC measured. It is a member in the resctrl_val_param struct and
is always set to "reads". The value is then checked in resctrl_val()
using validate_bw_report_request() that besides validating the input,
assumes it can mutate the string which is questionable programming
practice.

Simplify handling bw_report:

- Convert validate_bw_report_request() into get_bw_report_type() that
inputs and returns const char *. Use NULL to indicate error.

- Validate the report types inside measure_mem_bw(), not in
resctrl_val().

- Pass bw_report to measure_mem_bw() from ->measure() hook because
resctrl_val() no longer needs bw_report for anything.
