selftests/resctrl: Fix a division by zero error on Hygon

2026-02-26T23:00:39+00:00

[ Upstream commit 671ef08d9455f5754d1fc96f5a14e357d6b80936 ] Change to adjust effective L3 cache size with SNC enabled change introduced the snc_nodes_per_l3_cache() function to detect the Intel Sub-NUMA Clustering (SNC) feature by comparing #CPUs in node0 with #CPUs sharing LLC with CPU0. The function was designed to return: (1) >1: SNC mode is enabled. (2) 1: SNC mode is not enabled or not supported. However, on certain Hygon CPUs, #CPUs sharing LLC with CPU0 is actually less than #CPUs in node0. This results in snc_nodes_per_l3_cache() returning 0 (calculated as cache_cpus / node_cpus). This leads to a division by zero error in get_cache_size(): *cache_size /= snc_nodes_per_l3_cache(); Causing the resctrl selftest to fail with: "Floating point exception (core dumped)" Fix the issue by ensuring snc_nodes_per_l3_cache() returns 1 when SNC mode is not supported on the platform.

selftests/resctrl: Discover SNC kernel support and adjust messages

2025-01-15T00:06:32+00:00

Resctrl selftest prints a message on test failure that Sub-Numa Clustering (SNC) could be enabled and points the user to check their BIOS settings. No actual check is performed before printing that message so it is not very accurate in pinpointing a problem. When there is SNC support for kernel's resctrl subsystem and SNC is enabled then sub node files are created for each node in the resctrlfs. The sub node files exist in each regular node's L3 monitoring directory. The reliable path to check for existence of sub node files is /sys/fs/resctrl/mon_data/mon_L3_00/mon_sub_L3_00. Add helper that checks for mon_sub_L3_00 existence. Correct old messages to account for kernel support of SNC in resctrl.

selftests/resctrl: Adjust effective L3 cache size with SNC enabled

2025-01-15T00:06:32+00:00

Sub-NUMA Cluster divides CPUs sharing an L3 cache into separate NUMA nodes. Systems may support splitting into either two, three, four or six nodes. When SNC mode is enabled the effective amount of L3 cache available for allocation is divided by the number of nodes per L3. It's possible to detect which SNC mode is active by comparing the number of CPUs that share a cache with CPU0, with the number of CPUs on node0. Detect SNC mode once and let other tests inherit that information. Update CFLAGS after including lib.mk in the Makefile so that fallthrough macro can be used. To check if SNC detection is reliable one can check the /sys/devices/system/cpu/offline file. If it's empty, it means all cores are operational and the ratio should be calculated correctly. If it has any contents, it means the detected SNC mode can't be trusted and should be disabled. Check if detection was not reliable due to offline cpus. If it was skip running tests since the results couldn't be trusted.

selftests/resctrl: Remove unused measurement code

2024-11-05T00:02:03+00:00

The MBM and MBA resctrl selftests run a benchmark during which it takes measurements of read memory bandwidth via perf. Code exists to support measurements of write memory bandwidth but there exists no path with which this code can execute. While code exists for write memory bandwidth measurement there has not yet been a use case for it. Remove this unused code. Rename relevant functions to include "read" so that it is clear that it relates only to memory bandwidth reads, while renaming the functions also add consistency by changing the "membw" instances to more prevalent "mem_bw".

selftests/resctrl: Protect against array overflow when reading strings

2024-11-05T00:02:02+00:00

resctrl selftests discover system properties via a variety of sysfs files. The MBM and MBA tests need to discover the event and umask with which to configure the performance event used to measure read memory bandwidth. This is done by parsing the contents of /sys/bus/event_source/devices/uncore_imc_/events/cas_count_read Similarly, the resctrl selftests discover the cache size via /sys/bus/cpu/devices/cpu/cache/index/size. Take care to do bounds checking when using fscanf() to read the contents of files into a string buffer because by default fscanf() assumes arbitrarily long strings. If the file contains more bytes than the array can accommodate then an overflow will occur. Provide a maximum field width to the conversion specifier to protect against array overflow. The maximum is one less than the array size because string input stores a terminating null byte that is not covered by the maximum field width.

selftests/resctrl: Remove test name comparing from write_bm_pid_to_resctrl()

2024-07-11T17:23:54+00:00

write_bm_pid_to_resctrl() uses resctrl_val to check test name which is not a good interface generic resctrl FS functions should provide. Tests define mongrp when needed. Remove the test name check in write_bm_pid_to_resctrl() to only rely on the mongrp parameter being non-NULL. Remove write_bm_pid_to_resctrl() resctrl_val parameter and resctrl_val member from the struct resctrl_val_param that are not used anymore. Similarly, remove the test name constants that are no longer used. Signed-off-by: Ilpo Järvinen Tested-by: Babu Moger Reviewed-by: Reinette Chatre Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan

2024-07-11T17:23:54+00:00

The struct resctrl_val_param has control and monitor groups as char arrays but they are not supposed to be mutated within resctrl_val(). Convert the ctrlgrp and mongrp char array within resctrl_val_param to plain const char pointers and adjust the strlen() based checks to check NULL instead.

selftests/resctrl: Simplify bandwidth report type handling

2024-07-11T17:23:54+00:00

bw_report is only needed for selecting the correct value from the values IMC measured. It is a member in the resctrl_val_param struct and is always set to "reads". The value is then checked in resctrl_val() using validate_bw_report_request() that besides validating the input, assumes it can mutate the string which is questionable programming practice. Simplify handling bw_report: - Convert validate_bw_report_request() into get_bw_report_type() that inputs and returns const char *. Use NULL to indicate error. - Validate the report types inside measure_mem_bw(), not in resctrl_val(). - Pass bw_report to measure_mem_bw() from ->measure() hook because resctrl_val() no longer needs bw_report for anything.

selftests/resctrl: Use correct type for pids

2024-07-11T17:23:53+00:00

A few functions receive PIDs through int arguments. PIDs variables should be of type pid_t, not int. Convert pid arguments from int to pid_t. Before printing PID, match the type to %d by casting to int which is enough for Linux (standard would allow using a longer integer type but generalizing for that would complicate the code unnecessarily, the selftest code does not need to be portable).
