[PATCH v7 0/4] x86/resctrl: mba_MBps enhancements

[Tony Luck]

[
	Bringing this old patch series out of hibernation since last December
]

Two changes relating to the MBA Software Controller(mba_sc):

1) Add a new mount option so the user can choose which memory
bandwidth monitoring event to use as the input to the feedback
loop.

2) Update the "mba_MBps" mount option to make use of total memory
bandwidth event on systems that do not support local bandwidth
event.

Changes since v6: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20231207195613.153980-1-tony.luck@xxxxxxxxx/

Peter Newman:
	s/"mbm_Local_bytes"/"mbm_local_bytes"/
	Added WARN_ON() to check non-null return from get_mbm_state()
	Don't allow both local and total mount options at same time

Reinette Chatre:
	Use flag (enable_mba_mbps) and value (mba_mbps_event) in
	struct rdt_fs_context. Then pass the value to r->membw.mba_mbps_event
	Ditto Peter's comment to block multiple uses of mount options.
	Use invalfc() for better error reporting to user
	Note in kerneldoc that mba_mbps_event only valid when @mba_sc is true
	Declare mba_sc_event_opt_name() as "const char *"
	Rework resctrl.rst patch based on comments

Babu Moger:
	Clean up calling sequence for set_mba_sc() to avoid dummy 2nd argument

Other changes:
	I split first patch into two parts:
	1) the periodic updates to use r->membw.mba_mbps_event to choose
	   the event
	2) The new mount option

	Also noticed code duplication in mbm_update() as the local
	and total clauses are now identical. Split that code into
	a helper function mbm_update_one_event()


Tony Luck (4):
  x86/resctrl: Make input event for MBA Software Controller configurable
  x86/resctrl: Add mount option to pick input event for mba_MBps mode
  x86/resctrl: Use total bandwidth for mba_MBps option when local isn't
    present
  x86/resctrl: Add new "mba_MBps_event" mount option to documentation
