Please be consistent by always using "# cat", not sometimes "$ cat" as above.

Please be consistent with spacing "# cat" vs "#cat". This is very noticeable when
viewing the formatted docs.

Is it possible to print a message to the command status to give some details about which
request failed? I am wondering about a scenario where a user changes multiple domains of
multiple groups, since the operation does not undo changes, it will fail without information
to user space about which setting triggered the failure and which settings succeeded.
This is similar to what is done when user attempts to move several tasks ... the error will
indicate which task triggered failure so that user space knows what completed successfully.

On a high level this looks ok but this code needs to be more robust. This will parse
data from user space that may include all kinds of input ... think malicious user or
a buggy script. I am not able to test this code but I tried to work through what will
happen under some wrong input and found some issues. For example, if user space provides
input like '//\n' then rdtgroup_process_flags() will be called with token == NULL. This will
result in rdtgroup_process_flags() returning "success", but fortunately do nothing, for
this invalid input. A more severe example is with input like '//0=\n', from what I can tell
this will result in rdtgroup_str_to_mon_state() called with dom_str==NULL that will treat
this as ASSIGN_NONE and proceed as if user provided '//0=_'.
This was just some scenarios with basic input that could be typos, no real stress tests.
I stopped here though since I believe it is already clear this needs to be more robust.
Please do test this interface by exercising it with invalid input and corner cases.
