Sub-NUMA Cluster divides CPUs sharing an L3 cache into separate NUMA
nodes. Systems may support splitting into either two, three, four or six
nodes. When SNC mode is enabled the effective amount of L3 cache
available for allocation is divided by the number of nodes per L3.
It's possible to detect which SNC mode is active by comparing the number
of CPUs that share a cache with CPU0, with the number of CPUs on node0.
Detect SNC mode once and let other tests inherit that information.
Change top_srcdir in the Makefile so fallthrough macro can be used in
the switch statement.
To check if SNC detection is reliable one can check the
/sys/devices/system/cpu/offline file. If it's empty, it means all cores
are operational and the ratio should be calculated correctly. If it has
any contents, it means the detected SNC mode can't be trusted and should
be disabled.
Check if detection was not reliable due to offline cpus. If it was skip
running tests since the results couldn't be trusted.

Changelog v7:
- Check return value when opening empty cpus file.
- Add protection against overflow when reading string into buffer from
empty cpus file.
- Include fallthrough macro into resctrl selftests and use it in the bit
counting function.
- Remove function usage suggestion from comment.
Changelog v6:
- Redo snc_nodes_per_l3_cache() by removing old logic and taking into
account existance of cpus_offline_empty().
- Remove MAX_SNC since now we just divide cache cpus by node cpus
instead of trying to estimate the ratio.
- Skip tests if snc_unreliable was set and get_vendor() returns
ARCH_INTEL.
- Move extern int snc_unreliable; from the next patch to this one since
it's needed here already.
- Set snc_unreliable if node or cache cpus cannot be counted for some
reason.
- Redo patch message after code changes.
Changelog v5:
- Set snc_mode to 1 at the start of if(!snc_mode) block.
- Move all resctrlfs.c code from patch 2/2 to this one. (Reinette)
- Fix Co-developed-by tag.
- Update SNC discovery comments for the case where it gets disabled by
being unreliable.
- Remove exclamation mark from ksft_perror() and add full file path
instead of "offline CPUs file".
- bit map -> bitmap.
- Remove unnecessary empty line.
Changelog v4:
- Make returned value a static local variable so the function only runs
the logic once. (Reinette)
Changelog v3:
- Add comparison between present and online cpus to test if the
calculated SNC mode is credible. (Reinette)
- Added comment to cache size modification to better explain why it is
needed there. (Reinette)
- Fix facts in patch message. (Reinette)
- Change snc_ways() to snc_nodes_per_l3_cache(). (Reinette)
