[PATCH v7 3/9] x86/resctrl: Parse ACPI ERDT table and save CACD cpumask for RMDD domains

From: Chen Yu

Date: Sat Aug 29 2026 - 02:08:18 EST


There is one Enhanced RDT (ERDT) ACPI table per platform. Each Resource
Management Domain Description (RMDD) sub-table within it describes one resource
management domain (RMD), also known as an L3 domain, and carries MMIO base
information for monitoring support. The CPU agents within the scope of an RMDD
are enumerated by their x2APIC IDs in a nested CPU Agent Collection Description
(CACD) sub-table.

Parse the RMDD sub-tables within the ERDT ACPI table and their nested CACD
entries to construct per-domain CPU masks.

For each RMDD, parse the associated CACD, map its x2APIC IDs to logical CPUs,
and save the resulting CPU mask. Associate every ERDT domain with the CPUs that
belong to it to prepare for attaching ERDT data to resctrl monitoring domains.

Based on original work from Anil S Keshavamurthy.

v6->v7:
Let get_rdt_resources() clean up its own state on failure and drop
the asymmetric __resctrl_arch_late_init() wrapper. (Reinette Chatre)
Make erdt_max_rmid and num_ids unsigned, add an explanatory comment
and use a plain min(). (Reinette Chatre)
Reset erdt_max_rmid in erdt_exit(). (Reinette Chatre)
Match erdt_ioremap() argument types to ioremap() by using
resource_size_t. (Reinette Chatre)
Initialise rmdd at declaration and check its length via
header.length. (Reinette Chatre)
Use a for() loop instead of while() for the table parsing, for
consistency. (Reinette Chatre)
Use sizeof(*erdt) instead of sizeof(struct ...) and align pr_warn()
to the open parenthesis. (Reinette Chatre)
