<title>x86/resctrl: Fix rdtgroup_mkdir()'s unlocked use of kernfs_node::name</title>

<content type='text'>
Since

  741c10b096bc ("kernfs: Use RCU to access kernfs_node::name.")

a helper rdt_kn_name() that checks that rdtgroup_mutex is held has been used
for all accesses to the kernfs node name.

rdtgroup_mkdir() uses the name to determine if a valid monitor group is being
created by checking the parent name is "mon_groups". This is done without
holding rdtgroup_mutex, and now triggers the following warning:

  | WARNING: suspicious RCU usage
  | 6.15.0-rc1 #4465 Tainted: G            E
  | -----------------------------
  | arch/x86/kernel/cpu/resctrl/internal.h:408 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!

Creating a control or monitor group calls mkdir_rdt_prepare(), which uses
rdtgroup_kn_lock_live() to take the rdtgroup_mutex.

To avoid taking and dropping the lock, move the check for the monitor group
name and position into mkdir_rdt_prepare() so that it occurs under
rdtgroup_mutex. Hoist is_mon_groups() earlier in the file.

Pull driver core updatesk from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big set of driver core updates for 6.15-rc1. Lots of stuff
  happened this development cycle, including:

   - kernfs scaling changes to make it even faster thanks to rcu

   - bin_attribute constify work in many subsystems

   - faux bus minor tweaks for the rust bindings

   - rust binding updates for driver core, pci, and platform busses,
     making more functionaliy available to rust drivers. These are all
     due to people actually trying to use the bindings that were in
     6.14.

   - make Rafael and Danilo full co-maintainers of the driver core
     codebase

   - other minor fixes and updates"

<title>x86/resctrl: Move get_{mon,ctrl}_domain_from_cpu() to live with their callers</title>

Each of get_{mon,ctrl}_domain_from_cpu() only has one caller.

Once the filesystem code is moved to /fs/, there is no equivalent to
core.c.

Move these functions to each live next to their caller. This allows
them to be made static and the header file entries to be removed.

<title>x86/resctrl: Handle throttle_mode for SMBA resources</title>

<id>urn:sha1:6c2282d42cb37f081587412f77340138b1df265e</id>
<content type='text'>
Now that the visibility of throttle_mode is being managed by resctrl, it
should consider resources other than MBA that may have a throttle_mode.  SMBA
is one such resource.

Extend thread_throttle_mode_init() to check SMBA for a throttle_mode.

Adding support for multiple resources means it is possible for a platform with
both MBA and SMBA, but an undefined throttle_mode on one of them to make the
file visible.

Add the 'undefined' case to rdt_thread_throttle_mode_show().

<title>x86/resctrl: Move RFTYPE flags to be managed by resctrl</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=373af4ecfdc922657be081b3feebbd0af8e7fa65'/>
<id>urn:sha1:373af4ecfdc922657be081b3feebbd0af8e7fa65</id>
<content type='text'>
resctrl_file_fflags_init() is called from the architecture specific code to
make the 'thread_throttle_mode' file visible. The architecture specific code
has already set the membw.throttle_mode in the rdt_resource.

This forces the RFTYPE flags used by resctrl to be exposed to the architecture
specific code.

This doesn't need to be specific to the architecture, the throttle_mode can be
used by resctrl to determine if the 'thread_throttle_mode' file should be
visible. This allows the RFTYPE flags to be private to resctrl.

Add thread_throttle_mode_init(), and use it to call resctrl_file_fflags_init()
from resctrl_init(). This avoids publishing an extra function between the
architecture and filesystem code.

<title>x86/resctrl: Allow an architecture to disable pseudo lock</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=7028840552a220ac5efe51a4b554195cd954a912'/>
<id>urn:sha1:7028840552a220ac5efe51a4b554195cd954a912</id>
<content type='text'>
Pseudo-lock relies on knowledge of the micro-architecture to disable
prefetchers etc.

On arm64 these controls are typically secure only, meaning Linux can't access
them. Arm's cache-lockdown feature works in a very different way. Resctrl's
pseudo-lock isn't going to be used on arm64 platforms.

Add a Kconfig symbol that can be selected by the architecture. This enables or
disables building of the pseudo_lock.c file, and replaces the functions with
stubs. An additional IS_ENABLED() check is needed in rdtgroup_mode_write() so
that attempting to enable pseudo-lock reports an "Unknown or unsupported mode"
to user-space via the last_cmd_status file.

<title>x86/resctrl: Move mbm_cfg_mask to struct rdt_resource</title>

<content type='text'>
The mbm_cfg_mask field lists the bits that user-space can set when configuring
an event. This value is output via the last_cmd_status file.

Once the filesystem parts of resctrl are moved to live in /fs/, the struct
rdt_hw_resource is inaccessible to the filesystem code. Because this value is
output to user-space, it has to be accessible to the filesystem code.

Move it to struct rdt_resource.

<title>x86/resctrl: Change mon_event_config_{read,write}() to be arch helpers</title>

mon_event_config_{read,write}() are called via IPI and access model specific
registers to do their work.

To support another architecture, this needs abstracting.

Rename mon_event_config_{read,write}() to have a "resctrl_arch_" prefix, and
move their struct mon_config_info parameter into &lt;linux/resctrl.h&gt;.  This
allows another architecture to supply an implementation of these.

As struct mon_config_info is now exposed globally, give it a 'resctrl_'
prefix. MPAM systems need access to the domain to do this work, add the
resource and domain to struct resctrl_mon_config_info.

<title>x86/resctrl: Move the is_mbm_*_enabled() helpers to asm/resctrl.h</title>

<id>urn:sha1:d012b66a16618509242a51f5f6c9b19868ba5159</id>
<content type='text'>
The architecture specific parts of resctrl provide helpers like
is_mbm_total_enabled() and is_mbm_local_enabled() to hide accesses to the
rdt_mon_features bitmap.

Exposing a group of helpers between the architecture and filesystem code is
preferable to a single unsigned-long like rdt_mon_features. Helpers can be more
readable and have a well defined behaviour, while allowing architectures to hide
more complex behaviour.

Once the filesystem parts of resctrl are moved, these existing helpers can no
longer live in internal.h. Move them to include/linux/resctrl.h Once these are
exposed to the wider kernel, they should have a 'resctrl_arch_' prefix, to fit
the rest of the arch&lt;-&gt;fs interface.

Move and rename the helpers that touch rdt_mon_features directly. is_mbm_event()
and is_mbm_enabled() are only called from rdtgroup.c, so can be moved into that
file.

rdt_get_mon_l3_config() is called from the arch's resctrl_arch_late_init(),
and initialises both architecture specific fields, such as hw_res-&gt;mon_scale
and resctrl filesystem fields by calling dom_data_init().

To separate the filesystem and architecture parts of resctrl, this function
needs splitting up.

Add resctrl_mon_resource_init() to do the filesystem specific work, and call
it from resctrl_init(). This runs later, but is still before the filesystem is
mounted and the rmid_ptrs[] array can be used.
