For example, $ cat mbm_assign_control #control_group/monitor_group/flags ... > > 2.

For example, if it was $cat /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3_MON/mbm_assign_control #control_group/monitor_group/flags /mon_a/00=l;01=l then $echo "/mon_a/00+t;01+t" > /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3_MON/mbm_assign_control would result in: $cat /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3_MON/mbm_assign_control #control_group/monitor_group/flags /mon_a/00=lt;01=lt An example like above would make it easier to understand how it is different from using "=" like in example 1. > > 3.

Assign a both counters to mon group inside another control group(non-default). > $mkdir /sys/fs/resctrl/ctrl_a/mon_ab/ Above will not work. $ mkdir /sys/fs/resctrl/ctrl_a $ mkdir /sys/fs/resctrl/ctrl_a/mon_groups/mon_ab > $echo "ctrl_a/mon_ab/00=lt;01=lt" > /sys/fs/resctrl/nfo/L3_MON/mbm_assign_contro (watch out for typos in examples) > > $cat /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3_MON/mbm_assign_control > //00=lt;01=lt > /mon_a/00=t;01=t > /ctrl_a/00=l;01=l > ctrl_a/mon_ab/00=lt;01=lt > > 5.
