Re: [PATCH v5 20/20] x86/resctrl: Introduce interface to modify assignment states of the groups

Hi Babu,

Introduce the interface to enable events in ABMC mode.

As mentioned in cover letter, please take care with terms. This
interface does not "enable events" - note that events can be
"enabled" even in legacy mode. This is the interface to
assign counters.


Events can be enabled or disabled by writing to file
/sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3_MON/mbm_control

Format is similar to the list format with addition of op-code for the
assignment operation.
"<CTRL_MON group>/<MON group>/<op-code><flags>"

Missing a "domain_id".


Format for specific type of groups:

* Default CTRL_MON group:
"//<domain_id><op-code><flags>"

* Non-default CTRL_MON group:
"<CTRL_MON group>//<domain_id><op-code><flags>"

* Child MON group of default CTRL_MON group:
"/<MON group>/<domain_id><op-code><flags>"

* Child MON group of non-default CTRL_MON group:
"<CTRL_MON group>/<MON group>/<domain_id><op-code><flags>"

Op-code can be one of the following:

= Update the assignment to match the flags
+ enable a new state
- disable a new state

(note comment in cover letter about consistent terms)


Assignment flags can be one of the following:
t MBM total event is enabled
l MBM local event is enabled
tl Both total and local MBM events are enabled
_ None of the MBM events are enabled. Valid only with '=" opcode.

v5: Interface name changed from mbm_assign_control to mbm_control.
Fixed opcode and flags combination.
'=_" is valid.
"-_" amd "+_" is not valid.
Minor message update.
Renamed the function with prefix - rdtgroup_.
Corrected few documentation mistakes.
Rebase related changes after SNC support.

v4: Added domain specific assignments. Fixed the opcode parsing.

v3: New patch.
Addresses the feedback to provide the global assignment interface.

No. As I mentioned before this makes all this work for nothing
by preventing us from ever adding another flag. Please do not
have a default catchall that unassigns all flags.
