Subject: [PATCH] x86/resctrl: mba_MBps: Fall back to total b/w if local b/w
unavailable

On Intel the various resource director technology (RDT) features are all
orthogonal and independently enumerated. Thus it is possible to have a system
that  provides "total" memory bandwidth measurements without providing
"local" bandwidth measurements.

If local bandwidth measurement is not available, do not give up on providing
the "mba_MBps" feedback option completely, make the code fall back to using
total bandwidth.


Is this customer requirement ?
What do you mean by " If local bandwidth measurement is not available" ?
Is the hardware supports only total bandwidth and not local?

It can get real ugly if we try to handle one special case.

thanks
Babu
