fs/resctrl: Update bit_usage to reflect io_alloc

2025-11-22T13:30:34+00:00

The "shareable_bits" and "bit_usage" resctrl files associated with cache resources give insight into how instances of a cache is used. Update the annotated capacity bitmasks displayed by "bit_usage" to include the cache portions allocated for I/O via the "io_alloc" feature. "shareable_bits" is a global bitmask of shareable cache with I/O and can thus not present the per-domain I/O allocations possible with the "io_alloc" feature. Revise the "shareable_bits" documentation to direct users to "bit_usage" for accurate cache usage information.

fs/resctrl: Introduce interface to modify io_alloc capacity bitmasks

2025-11-22T13:28:31+00:00

The io_alloc feature in resctrl enables system software to configure the portion of the cache allocated for I/O traffic. When supported, the io_alloc_cbm file in resctrl provides access to capacity bitmasks (CBMs) allocated for I/O devices. Enable users to modify io_alloc CBMs by writing to the io_alloc_cbm resctrl file when the io_alloc feature is enabled. Mirror the CBMs between CDP_CODE and CDP_DATA when CDP is enabled to present consistent I/O allocation information to user space.

fs/resctrl: Modify struct rdt_parse_data to pass mode and CLOSID

2025-11-22T12:10:12+00:00

parse_cbm() requires resource group mode and CLOSID to validate the capacity bitmask (CBM). It is passed via struct rdtgroup in struct rdt_parse_data. The io_alloc feature also uses CBMs to indicate which portions of cache are allocated for I/O traffic. The CBMs are provided by user space and need to be validated the same as CBMs provided for general (CPU) cache allocation. parse_cbm() cannot be used as-is since io_alloc does not have rdtgroup context. Pass the resource group mode and CLOSID directly to parse_cbm() via struct rdt_parse_data, instead of through the rdtgroup struct, to facilitate calling parse_cbm() to verify the CBM of the io_alloc feature.

fs/resctrl: Introduce interface to display io_alloc CBMs

2025-11-22T10:37:21+00:00

Introduce the "io_alloc_cbm" resctrl file to display the capacity bitmasks (CBMs) that represent the portions of each cache instance allocated for I/O traffic on a cache resource that supports the "io_alloc" feature. io_alloc_cbm resides in the info directory of a cache resource, for example, /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3/. Since the resource name is part of the path, it is not necessary to display the resource name as done in the schemata file. When CDP is enabled, io_alloc routes traffic using the highest CLOSID associated with the CDP_CODE resource and that CLOSID becomes unusable for the CDP_DATA resource. The highest CLOSID of CDP_CODE and CDP_DATA resources will be kept in sync to ensure consistent user interface. In preparation for this, access the CBMs for I/O traffic through highest CLOSID of either CDP_CODE or CDP_DATA resource.

fs/resctrl: Add user interface to enable/disable io_alloc feature

2025-11-21T22:01:54+00:00

AMD's SDCIAE forces all SDCI lines to be placed into the L3 cache portions identified by the highest-supported L3_MASK_n register, where n is the maximum supported CLOSID. To support this, when io_alloc resctrl feature is enabled, reserve the highest CLOSID exclusively for I/O allocation traffic making it no longer available for general CPU cache allocation. Introduce user interface to enable/disable io_alloc feature and encourage users to enable io_alloc only when running workloads that can benefit from this functionality. On enable, initialize the io_alloc CLOSID with all usable CBMs across all the domains. Since CLOSIDs are managed by resctrl fs, it is least invasive to make "io_alloc is supported by maximum supported CLOSID" part of the initial resctrl fs support for io_alloc. Take care to minimally (only in error messages) expose this use of CLOSID for io_alloc to user space so that this is not required from other architectures that may support io_alloc differently in the future. When resctrl is mounted with "-o cdp" to enable code/data prioritization, there are two L3 resources that can support I/O allocation: L3CODE and L3DATA. From resctrl fs perspective the two resources share a CLOSID and the architecture's available CLOSID are halved to support this. The architecture's underlying CLOSID used by SDCIAE when CDP is enabled is the CLOSID associated with the CDP_CODE resource, but from resctrl's perspective there is only one CLOSID for both CDP_CODE and CDP_DATA. CDP_DATA is thus not usable for general (CPU) cache allocation nor I/O allocation. Keep the CDP_CODE and CDP_DATA I/O alloc status in sync to avoid any confusion to user space. That is, enabling io_alloc on CDP_CODE does so on CDP_DATA and vice-versa, and keep the I/O allocation CBMs of CDP_CODE and CDP_DATA in sync.

fs/resctrl: Introduce interface to display "io_alloc" support

2025-11-21T21:49:42+00:00

Introduce the "io_alloc" resctrl file to the "info" area of a cache resource, for example /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3/io_alloc. "io_alloc" indicates support for the "io_alloc" feature that allows direct insertion of data from I/O devices into the cache. Restrict exposing support for "io_alloc" to the L3 resource that is the only resource where this feature can be backed by AMD's L3 Smart Data Cache Injection Allocation Enforcement (SDCIAE). With that, the "io_alloc" file is only visible to user space if the L3 resource supports "io_alloc". Doing so makes the file visible for all cache resources though, for example also L2 cache (if it supports cache allocation). As a consequence, add capability for file to report expected "enabled" and "disabled", as well as "not supported".

fs/resctrl: Consider sparse masks when initializing new group's allocation

2025-11-18T20:10:56+00:00

A new resource group is intended to be created with sane defaults. For a cache resource this means all cache portions the new group could possibly allocate into. This includes unused cache portions and shareable cache portions used by other groups and hardware. New resource group creation does not take sparse masks into account. After determining the bitmask reflecting the new group's possible allocations the bitmask is forced to be contiguous even if the system supports sparse masks. For example, a new group could by default allocate into a large portion of cache represented by 0xff0f, but it is instead created with a mask of 0xf. Do not force a contiguous allocation range if the system supports sparse masks.
