[PATCH v4 0/7] x86/resctrl: Miscellaneous resctrl features

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



These series adds support few minor features.
1. Support assigning multiple tasks to control/mon groups in one command.
2. Add debug mount option for resctrl interface.
3. Add RMID and CLOSID in resctrl interface when mounted with debug option.
4. While doing these above changes, found that rftype flags needed some cleanup.
   They were named inconsistently. Re-arranged them much more cleanly now.
   Hope it can help future additions.

v4: Changes since v3
    Addressed comments from Reinette and others.
    Removed newline requirement when adding tasks.
    Dropped one of the changes on flags. Kept the flag names mostly same.
    Changed the names of closid and rmid to ctrl_hw_id and mon_hw_id respectively.
    James had some concerns about adding these files. But I thing it is big problem.
    Please comment back if we can do better. 
    Tried to address Reinette's comment on patch 7. But due to current code design
    I could not do it exact way. But changed it little bit to make it easy debug
    file additions in the future.  

v3: Changes since v2
    Still waiting for more comments. While waiting, addressed few comments from Fenghua.
    Added few more texts in the documentation about multiple tasks assignment feature.
    Added pid in last_cmd_status when applicable.
    Introduced static resctrl_debug to save the debug option.
    Few minor text changes.
  
v2: Changes since v1
  a. Removed the changes to add the task's threads automatically. It required
     book keeping to handle the failures and gets complicated. Removed that change
     for now.
  b. Added -o debug option to mount in debug mode(comment from Fenghua)
  c. Added debug files rmid and closid. Stephane wanted to rename them more
     generic to accommodate ARM. It kind of loses meaning if is renamed differently.
     Kept it same for now. Will change if he feels strong about it.
