git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull x86 resource control updates from Borislav Petkov: "Carve out the resctrl filesystem-related code into fs/resctrl/ so that multiple architectures can share the fs API for manipulating their respective hw resource control implementation. This is the second step in the work towards sharing the resctrl filesystem interface, the next one being plugging ARM's MPAM into the aforementioned fs API" * tag 'x86_cache_for_v6.16_rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (25 commits) MAINTAINERS: Add reviewers for fs/resctrl x86,fs/resctrl: Move the resctrl filesystem code to live in /fs/resctrl x86/resctrl: Always initialise rid field in rdt_resources_all[] x86/resctrl: Relax some asm #includes x86/resctrl: Prefer alloc(sizeof(*foo)) idiom in rdt_init_fs_context() x86/resctrl: Squelch whitespace anomalies in resctrl core code x86/resctrl: Move pseudo lock prototypes to include/linux/resctrl.h x86/resctrl: Fix types in resctrl_arch_mon_ctx_{alloc,free}() stubs x86/resctrl: Move enum resctrl_event_id to resctrl.h x86/resctrl: Move the filesystem bits to headers visible to fs/resctrl fs/resctrl: Add boiler plate for external resctrl code x86/resctrl: Add 'resctrl' to the title of the resctrl documentation x86/resctrl: Split trace.h x86/resctrl: Expand the width of domid by replacing mon_data_bits x86/resctrl: Add end-marker to the resctrl_event_id enum x86/resctrl: Move is_mba_sc() out of core.c x86/resctrl: Drop __init/__exit on assorted symbols x86/resctrl: Resctrl_exit() teardown resctrl but leave the mount point x86/resctrl: Check all domains are offline in resctrl_exit() x86/resctrl: Rename resctrl_sched_in() to begin with "resctrl_arch_" ...
2025-05-16x86,fs/resctrl: Move the resctrl filesystem code to live in /fs/resctrlJames Morse1-1/+0
Resctrl is a filesystem interface to hardware that provides cache allocation policy and bandwidth control for groups of tasks or CPUs. To support more than one architecture, resctrl needs to live in /fs/. Move the code that is concerned with the filesystem interface to /fs/resctrl.

2025-04-30Documentation: Add AMD Zen debugging documentMario Limonciello1-0/+1
Debugging issues on AMD hardware can be challenging for users without proper documentation and tools. Introduce a document that includes techniques for debugging s2idle issues. It will be expanded for debugging other issues later. Signed-off-by: Mario Limonciello <mario.limonciello@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov (AMD) <bp@alien8.de> Reviewed-by: Gautham R.

2023-03-30docs: move x86 documentation into Documentation/arch/Jonathan Corbet1-0/+44
Move the x86 documentation under Documentation/arch/ as a way of cleaning up the top-level directory and making the structure of our docs more closely match the structure of the source directories it describes. All in-kernel references to the old paths have been updated.
