[v5,1/2] selftests/resctrl: Adjust effective L3 cache size with SNC enabled

Commit Message

Maciej Wieczor-Retman Oct. 29, 2024, 1 p.m. UTC 
Sub-NUMA Cluster divides CPUs sharing an L3 cache into separate NUMA
nodes. Systems may support splitting into either two, three or four
nodes.

When SNC mode is enabled the effective amount of L3 cache available
for allocation is divided by the number of nodes per L3.

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.

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)

As I understand none of the tests can be considered reliable if SNC detection is unreliable
so skipping the test can be done here in a central spot without duplicating it in each test.

Similar to v4 this "try to get the ratio right" is unnecessary because of the explicit
check for offline CPUs.

Unclear why this is hardcoded "1". If this is an error then it should be negative so that
caller can consume as error. If it is intended to represent SNC mode then it should be
"snc_mode".

As I understand this complication is no longer needed because of earlier cpus_offline_empty()
check.

get_cache_size() is also used by L3 CAT test. L3 CAT test is thus also impacted
if SNC cannot be detected reliably and should be skipped.

fyi, it seems that 6 is the new max:
