[PATCH v7 7/8] x86/resctrl: Sub NUMA Cluster detection and enable

From: Tony Luck
Date: Tue Oct 03 2023 - 12:08:43 EST


There isn't a simple h/w bit that indicates whether a CPU is
running in Sub NUMA Cluster (SNC) mode. Infer the state by comparing
the ratio of NUMA nodes to L3 cache instances.

When SNC mode is detected, reconfigure the RMID counters by updating
the MSR_RMID_SNC_CONFIG MSR on each socket as CPUs are seen.

Clearing bit zero of the MSR divides the RMIDs and renumbers the ones
on the second SNC node to start from zero. An earlier commit includes
all the required changes in Linux to operate in this reconfigured mode.

Changes since last version:

Moved kfree(node_caches); earlier, to the earliest point where it
is no longer needed.

Added Granite Rapids to list of CPU models that support SNC mode.
