AMD systems support zero CBM (capacity bit mask) for cache allocation. That is reflected in rdt_init_res_defs_amd() by: r->cache.arch_has_empty_bitmaps = true; However given the unified code in cbm_validate(), checking for: val == 0 && !arch_has_empty_bitmaps is not enough because of another check in cbm_validate(): if ((zero_bit - first_bit) < r->cache.min_cbm_bits) The default value of r->cache.min_cbm_bits = 1. Leading to: $ cd /sys/fs/resctrl $ mkdir foo $ cd foo $ echo L3:0=0 > schemata -bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument $ cat /sys/fs/resctrl/info/last_cmd_status Need at least 1 bits in the mask Fix the issue by initializing the min_cbm_bits to 0 for AMD. Also, remove the default setting of min_cbm_bits and initialize it separately. After the fix $ cd /sys/fs/resctrl $ mkdir foo $ cd foo $ echo L3:0=0 > schemata $ cat /sys/fs/resctrl/info/last_cmd_status ok Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220517001234.3137157-1-eranian@xxxxxxxxxx/ Fixes: 316e7f901f5a ("x86/resctrl: Add struct rdt_cache::arch_has_{sparse, empty}_bitmaps") Co-developed-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Babu Moger <babu.moger@xxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@xxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: James Morse <james.morse@xxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@xxxxxxxxx> --- arch/x86/kernel/cpu/resctrl/core.c | 8 ++------ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) 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;
