[PATCH 5/5] x86/mbm: Add support for MBM counter overflow handling

From: Vikas Shivappa
Date: Wed Feb 10 2016 - 20:11:37 EST


This patch adds a per package timer which periodically updates the
Memory bandwidth counters for the events that are currently active.
Current patch has a periodic timer every 1s since the SDM guarantees
that the counter will not overflow in 1s but this time can be definitely
improved by calibrating on the system. The overflow is really a function
of the max memory b/w that the socket can support, max counter value and
scaling factor.
