This change allows creating kernfs files and directories with arbitrary
uid/gid instead of always using GLOBAL_ROOT_UID/GID by extending
kernfs_create_dir_ns() and kernfs_create_file_ns() with uid/gid arguments.
The "simple" kernfs_create_file() and kernfs_create_dir() are left alone
and always create objects belonging to the global root.
When creating symlinks ownership (uid/gid) is taken from the target kernfs
object.

When a resource group enters pseudo-locksetup mode it reflects that the
platform supports cache pseudo-locking and the resource group is unused,
ready to be used for a pseudo-locked region. Until it is set up as a
pseudo-locked region the resource group is "locked down" such that no new
tasks or cpus can be assigned to it. This is accomplished in a user visible
way by making the cpus, cpus_list, and tasks resctrl files inaccassible
(user cannot read from or write to these files).
When the resource group changes to pseudo-locked mode it represents a cache
pseudo-locked region. While not appropriate to make any changes to the cpus
assigned to this region it is useful to make it easy for the user to see
which cpus are associated with the pseudo-locked region.
Modify the permissions of the cpus/cpus_list file when the resource group
changes to pseudo-locked mode to support reading (not writing). The
information presented to the user when reading the file are the cpus
associated with the pseudo-locked region.

As the mode of a resource group changes, the operations it can support may
also change. One way in which the supported operations are managed is to
modify the permissions of the files within the resource group's resctrl
directory.
At the moment only two possible permissions are supported: the default
permissions or no permissions in support for when the operation is "locked
down". It is possible where an operation on a resource group may have more
possibilities. For example, if by default changes can be made to the
resource group by writing to a resctrl file while the current settings can
be obtained by reading from the file, then it may be possible that in
another mode it is only possible to read the current settings, and not
change them.
Make it possible to modify some of the permissions of a resctrl file in
support of a more flexible way to manage the operations on a resource
group. In this preparation work the original behavior is maintained where
all permissions are restored.

The user can request entering pseudo-locksetup mode by writing
"pseudo-locksetup" to the mode file. Act on this request as well as
support switching from a pseudo-locksetup mode (before pseudo-locked
mode was entered). It is not supported to modify the mode once
pseudo-locked mode has been entered.
The schemata reflects the new mode by adding "uninitialized" to all
resources. The size resctrl file reports zero for all cache domains in
support of the uninitialized nature. Since there are no users of this
class of service its allocations can be ignored when searching for
appropriate default allocations for new resource groups. For the same
reason resource groups in pseudo-locksetup mode are not considered when
testing if new resource groups may overlap.

When a resource group is used for Cache Pseudo-Locking then the region of
cache ends up being orphaned with no class of service referring to it. The
resctrl files intended to manage how the classes of services are utilized
thus become irrelevant.
The fact that a resctrl file is not relevant can be communicated to the
user by setting all of its permissions to zero. That is, its read, write,
and execute permissions are unset for all users.
Introduce two utilities, rdtgroup_kn_mode_restrict() and
rdtgroup_kn_mode_restore(), that can be used to restrict and restore the
permissions of a file or directory belonging to a resource group.

By default, if the opener has CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE, a kernfs file can be opened
regardless of RW permissions. Writing to a kernfs file will thus succeed
even if permissions are 0000.
It's required to restrict the actions that can be performed on a resource
group from userspace based on the mode of the resource group. This
restriction will be done through a modification of the file
permissions. That is, for example, if a resource group is locked then the
user cannot add tasks to the resource group.
For this restriction through file permissions to work it has to be ensured
that the permissions are always respected. To do so the resctrl filesystem
is created with the KERNFS_ROOT_EXTRA_OPEN_PERM_CHECK flag that will result
in open(2) failing with -EACCESS regardless of CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE if the
permission does not have the respective read or write access.

With cache regions now explicitly marked as "shareable" or "exclusive"
we would like to communicate to the user how portions of the cache
are used.
Introduce "bit_usage" that indicates for each resource
how portions of the cache are configured to be used.
To assist the user to distinguish whether the sharing is from software or
hardware we add the following annotation:
0 - currently unused
X - currently available for sharing and used by software and hardware
H - currently used by hardware only but available for software use
S - currently used and shareable by software only
E - currently used exclusively by one resource group

Currently when a new resource group is created its allocations would be
those that belonged to the resource group to which its closid belonged
previously.
That is, we can encounter a case like:
mkdir newgroup
cat newgroup/schemata
L2:0=ff;1=ff
echo 'L2:0=0xf0;1=0xf0' > newgroup/schemata
cat newgroup/schemata
L2:0=0xf0;1=0xf0
rmdir newgroup
mkdir newnewgroup
cat newnewgroup/schemata
L2:0=0xf0;1=0xf0
When the new group is created it would be reasonable to expect its
allocations to be initialized with all regions that it can possibly use.
At this time these regions would be all that are shareable by other
resource groups as well as regions that are not currently used.
If the available cache region is found to be non-contiguous the
available region is adjusted to enforce validity.
When a new resource group is created the hardware is initialized with
these new default allocations.

When MBA software controller is enabled, a per domain storage is required
for user specified bandwidth in "MBps" and the "percentage" values which
are programmed into the IA32_MBA_THRTL_MSR. Add support for these data
structures and initialization.
The MBA percentage values have a default max value of 100 but however the
max value in MBps is not available from the hardware so it's set to
U32_MAX.
This simply says that the control group can use all bandwidth by default
but does not say what is the actual max bandwidth available. The actual
bandwidth that is available may depend on lot of factors like QPI link,
number of memory channels, memory channel frequency, its width and memory
speed, how many channels are configured and also if memory interleaving is
enabled. So there is no way to determine the maximum at runtime reliably.

If no monitoring feature is detected because all monitoring features are
disabled during boot time or there is no monitoring feature in hardware,
creating rdtgroup sub-directory by "mkdir" command reports error:
mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/sys/fs/resctrl/p1’: No such file or directory
But the sub-directory actually is generated and content is correct:
cpus cpus_list schemata tasks
The error is because rdtgroup_mkdir_ctrl_mon() returns non zero value after
the sub-directory is created and the returned value is reported as an error
to user.
Clear the returned value to report to user that the sub-directory is
actually created successfully.

CPUID.(EAX=0x10, ECX=res#):EBX[31:0] reports a bit mask for a resource.
Each set bit within the length of the CBM indicates the corresponding
unit of the resource allocation may be used by other entities in the
platform (e.g. an integrated graphics engine or hardware units outside
the processor core and have direct access to the resource). Each
cleared bit within the length of the CBM indicates the corresponding
allocation unit can be configured to implement a priority-based
allocation scheme without interference with other hardware agents in
the system. Bits outside the length of the CBM are reserved.
More details on the bit mask are described in x86 Software Developer's
Manual.
The bitmask is shown in "info" directory for each resource. It's
up to user to decide how to use the bitmask within a CBM in a partition
to share or isolate a resource with other executing units.

Add a mon_data directory for the root rdtgroup and all other rdtgroups.
The directory holds all of the monitored data for all domains and events
of all resources being monitored.
The mon_data itself has a list of directories in the format
mon_<domain_name>_<domain_id>. Each of these subdirectories contain one
file per event in the mode "0444". Reading the file displays a snapshot
of the monitored data for the event the file represents.
For ex, on a 2 socket Broadwell with llc_occupancy being
monitored the mon_data contents look as below:
$ ls /sys/fs/resctrl/p1/mon_data/
mon_L3_00
mon_L3_01
Each domain directory has one file per event:
$ ls /sys/fs/resctrl/p1/mon_data/mon_L3_00/
llc_occupancy
To read current llc_occupancy of ctrl_mon group p1
$ cat /sys/fs/resctrl/p1/mon_data/mon_L3_00/llc_occupancy

[This patch idea is based on Tony's sample patches to organise data in a

The cpus file is extended to support resource monitoring. This is used
to over-ride the RMID of the default group when running on specific
CPUs. It works similar to the resource control. The "cpus" and
"cpus_list" file is present in default group, ctrl_mon groups and
monitor groups.
Each "cpus" file or cpu_list file reads a cpumask or list showing which
CPUs belong to the resource group. By default all online cpus belong to
the default root group. A CPU can be present in one "ctrl_mon" and one
"monitor" group simultaneously. They can be added to a resource group by
writing the CPU to the file. When a CPU is added to a ctrl_mon group it
is automatically removed from the previous ctrl_mon group. A CPU can be
added to a monitor group only if it is present in the parent ctrl_mon
group and when a CPU is added to a monitor group, it is automatically
removed from the previous monitor group. When CPUs go offline, they are
automatically removed from the ctrl_mon and monitor groups.
