I evidently only thought about this the !arch_has_empty_bitmaps way round!

If you are reposting Stephane's patch then there needs to be a 'From: ' at the top of the email so that git preserves the ownership. You may need some incantation of "git commit --amend --author=" to fix this in your tree. As its a fix, have you posted this separately? Mixing fixes and new-code makes it hard for the maintainer to spot what needs to be taken for the next -rc. > diff --git a/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/resctrl/core.c b/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/resctrl/core.c > index bb1c3f5f60c8..a5c51a14fbce 100644 > --- a/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/resctrl/core.c > +++ b/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/resctrl/core.c > @@ -66,9 +66,6 @@ struct rdt_hw_resource rdt_resources_all[] = { > .rid = RDT_RESOURCE_L3, > .name = "L3", > .cache_level = 3, > - .cache = { > - .min_cbm_bits = 1, > - }, > .domains = domain_init(RDT_RESOURCE_L3), > .parse_ctrlval = parse_cbm, > .format_str = "%d=%0*x", > @@ -83,9 +80,6 @@ struct rdt_hw_resource rdt_resources_all[] = { > .rid = RDT_RESOURCE_L2, > .name = "L2", > .cache_level = 2, > - .cache = { > - .min_cbm_bits = 1, > - }, > .domains = domain_init(RDT_RESOURCE_L2), > .parse_ctrlval = parse_cbm, > .format_str = "%d=%0*x", > @@ -877,6 +871,7 @@ static __init void rdt_init_res_defs_intel(void) > r->cache.arch_has_sparse_bitmaps = false; > r->cache.arch_has_empty_bitmaps = false; > r->cache.arch_has_per_cpu_cfg = false; > + r->cache.min_cbm_bits = 1; > } else if (r->rid == RDT_RESOURCE_MBA) { > hw_res->msr_base = MSR_IA32_MBA_THRTL_BASE; > hw_res->msr_update = mba_wrmsr_intel; > @@ -897,6 +892,7 @@ static __init void rdt_init_res_defs_amd(void) > r->cache.arch_has_sparse_bitmaps = true; > r->cache.arch_has_empty_bitmaps = true; > r->cache.arch_has_per_cpu_cfg = true; > + r->cache.min_cbm_bits = 0; > } else if (r->rid == RDT_RESOURCE_MBA) { > hw_res->msr_base = MSR_IA32_MBA_BW_BASE; > hw_res->msr_update = mba_wrmsr_amd; > > Reviewed-by: James Morse <james.morse@xxxxxxx> Thanks, James
