New AMD processors can now support following QoS features.
1. Slow Memory Bandwidth Allocation (SMBA)
With this feature, the QOS enforcement policies can be applied
to the external slow memory connected to the host. QOS enforcement
is accomplished by assigning a Class Of Service (COS) to a processor
and specifying allocations or limits for that COS for each resource
to be allocated.
Currently, CXL.memory is the only supported "slow" memory device. With
the support of SMBA feature the hardware enables bandwidth allocation
on the slow memory devices.
2. Bandwidth Monitoring Event Configuration (BMEC)
The bandwidth monitoring events mbm_total_event and mbm_local_event
are set to count all the total and local reads/writes respectively.
With the introduction of slow memory, the two counters are not enough
to count all the different types are memory events. With the feature
BMEC, the users have the option to configure mbm_total_event and
mbm_local_event to count the specific type of events.
Following are the bitmaps of events supported.
Bits Description
6 Dirty Victims from the QOS domain to all types of memory
5 Reads to slow memory in the non-local NUMA domain
4 Reads to slow memory in the local NUMA domain
3 Non-temporal writes to non-local NUMA domain
2 Non-temporal writes to local NUMA domain
1 Reads to memory in the non-local NUMA domain
0 Reads to memory in the local NUMA domain
This series adds support for these features.
Feature description is available in the specification, "AMD64 Technology Platform Quality of Service Extensions, Revision: 1.03 Publication # 56375
Revision: 1.03 Issue Date: February 2022".

v8:
Changes:
1. Removed init attribute for rdt_cpu_has to make it available for all the files.
2. Updated the change log for mon_features to correct the names of config files.
3. Changed configuration file name from mbm_total_config to mbm_total_bytes_config.
This is more consistant with other changes.
4. Added lock protection while reading/writing the config file.
5. Other few minor text changes. I have been missing few comments in last couple of
revisions. Hope I have addressed all of them this time.
v7:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/166604543832.5345.9696970469830919982.stgit@bmoger-ubuntu/
Changes:
Not much of a change. Missed one comment from Reinette from v5. Corrected it now.
Few format corrections from Sanjaya.
v6:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/166543345606.23830.3120625408601531368.stgit@bmoger-ubuntu/
Summary of changes:
1. Rebased on top of lastest tip tree. Fixed few minor conflicts.
2. Fixed format issue with scattered.c.
3. Removed config_name from the structure mon_evt. It is not required.
4. The read/write format for mbm_total_config and mbm_local_config will be same
as schemata format "id0=val0;id1=val1;...". This is comment from Fenghua.
5. Added more comments MSR_IA32_EVT_CFG_BASE writng.
5. Few text changes in resctrl.rst
v5:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/166431016617.373387.1968875281081252467.stgit@bmoger-ubuntu/
Summary of changes.
1. Split the series into two. The first two patches are bug fixes. So, sent them separate.
2. The config files mbm_total_config and mbm_local_config are now under
/sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3_MON/. Removed these config files from mon groups.
3. Ran "checkpatch --strict --codespell" on all the patches. Looks good with few known exceptions.
4. Few minor text changes in resctrl.rst file.
v4:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/166257348081.1043018.11227924488792315932.stgit@bmoger-ubuntu/
Got numerios of comments from Reinette Chatre. Addressed most of them.
Summary of changes.
1. Removed mon_configurable under /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3_MON/.
2. Updated mon_features texts if the BMEC is supported.
3. Added more explanation about the slow memory support.
4. Replaced smp_call_function_many with on_each_cpu_mask call.
5. Removed arch_has_empty_bitmaps
6. Few other text changes.
7. Removed Reviewed-by if the patch is modified.
8. Rebased the patches to latest tip.
v3:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/166117559756.6695.16047463526634290701.stgit@bmoger-ubuntu/
a. Rebased the patches to latest tip. Resolved some conflicts.
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git
b. Taken care of feedback from Bagas Sanjaya.
c. Added Reviewed by from Mingo.
Note: I am still looking for comments from Reinette or Fenghua.
v2:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/165938717220.724959.10931629283087443782.stgit@bmoger-ubuntu/
a. Rebased the patches to latest stable tree (v5.18.15). Resolved some conflicts.
b. Added the patch to fix CBM issue on AMD. This was originally discussed
