I do not find there to be a context nor problem description in the changelog. Do you believe this changelog is appropriate for tip? Am I missing something? > > Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@xxxxxxxxx> > --- > arch/x86/kernel/cpu/resctrl/monitor.c | 23 ++++++++++++++++++----- > 1 file changed, 18 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/resctrl/monitor.c b/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/resctrl/monitor.c > index 7ef1a293cc13..2176e355e864 100644 > --- a/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/resctrl/monitor.c > +++ b/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/resctrl/monitor.c > @@ -752,20 +752,31 @@ static void update_mba_bw(struct rdtgroup *rgrp, struct rdt_mon_domain *dom_mbm) > u32 closid, rmid, cur_msr_val, new_msr_val; > struct mbm_state *pmbm_data, *cmbm_data; > struct rdt_ctrl_domain *dom_mba; > + enum resctrl_event_id evt_id; > struct rdt_resource *r_mba; > - u32 cur_bw, user_bw, idx; > struct list_head *head; > struct rdtgroup *entry; > + u32 cur_bw, user_bw; > > - if (!is_mbm_local_enabled()) > + if (!is_mbm_enabled()) This change in the check is unexpected because at this point the event is still enforced to be local MBM.

If that contract is respected with appropriate initialization and change of rgrp->mba_mbps_event then I do not believe that the three checks below nor the "is_mbm_enabled()" above in reader of rgrp->mba_mbps_event are necessary since the access of rgrp->mba_mbps_event is within "contract". Note that caller does the checking if mba_sc is enabled: if (is_mba_sc(NULL)) update_mba_bw(prgrp, d); Thus doing same check within update_mba_bw() should not be necessary. It does take a lot of digging to understand so it would really be helpful to document these types of design decisions and reinforce them through the series. > + > + if (WARN_ON_ONCE(!is_mbm_event(evt_id))) > + return; > + if (WARN_ON_ONCE(evt_id == QOS_L3_MBM_LOCAL_EVENT_ID && !is_mbm_local_enabled())) > + return; > + if (WARN_ON_ONCE(evt_id == QOS_L3_MBM_TOTAL_EVENT_ID && !is_mbm_total_enabled())) > + return; > + > > closid = rgrp->closid; > rmid = rgrp->mon.rmid; > - idx = resctrl_arch_rmid_idx_encode(closid, rmid); > - pmbm_data = &dom_mbm->mbm_local[idx]; > + pmbm_data = get_mbm_state(dom_mbm, closid, rmid, evt_id); > + if (WARN_ON_ONCE(!pmbm_data)) > + return; > > dom_mba = get_ctrl_domain_from_cpu(smp_processor_id(), r_mba); > if (!dom_mba) { > @@ -784,7 +795,9 @@ static void update_mba_bw(struct rdtgroup *rgrp, struct rdt_mon_domain *dom_mbm) > */ > head = &rgrp->mon.crdtgrp_list; > list_for_each_entry(entry, head, mon.crdtgrp_list) { > - cmbm_data = &dom_mbm->mbm_local[entry->mon.rmid]; > + cmbm_data = get_mbm_state(dom_mbm, entry->closid, entry->mon.rmid, evt_id); > + if (WARN_ON_ONCE(!cmbm_data)) > + return; > cur_bw += cmbm_data->prev_bw; > } > Reinette
