When the last CPU in an rdt_domain goes offline, its rdt_domain struct gets
freed. Current pseudo-locking code is unaware of this scenario and tries to
dereference the freed structure in a few places.
Add checks to prevent pseudo-locking code from doing this.
While further work is needed to seamlessly restore resource groups (not
just pseudo-locking) to their configuration when the domain is brought back
online, the immediate issue of invalid pointers is addressed here.

While the DOC at the beginning of lib/bitmap.c explicitly states that
"The number of valid bits in a given bitmap does _not_ need to be an
exact multiple of BITS_PER_LONG.", some of the bitmap operations do
indeed access BITS_PER_LONG portions of the provided bitmap no matter
the size of the provided bitmap. For example, if bitmap_intersects()
is provided with an 8 bit bitmap the operation will access
BITS_PER_LONG bits from the provided bitmap. While the operation
ensures that these extra bits do not affect the result, the memory
is still accessed.
The capacity bitmasks (CBMs) are typically stored in u32 since they
can never exceed 32 bits. A few instances exist where a bitmap_*
operation is performed on a CBM by simply pointing the bitmap operation
to the stored u32 value.
The consequence of this pattern is that some bitmap_* operations will
access out-of-bounds memory when interacting with the provided CBM. This
is confirmed with a KASAN test that reports:
BUG: KASAN: stack-out-of-bounds in __bitmap_intersects+0xa2/0x100
and
BUG: KASAN: stack-out-of-bounds in __bitmap_weight+0x58/0x90
Fix this by moving any CBM provided to a bitmap operation needing
BITS_PER_LONG to an 'unsigned long' variable.

of the _cbm extra step ]

The success of a cache pseudo-locked region is measured using
performance monitoring events that are programmed directly at the time
the user requests a measurement.
Modifying the performance event registers directly is not appropriate
since it circumvents the in-kernel perf infrastructure that exists to
manage these resources and provide resource arbitration to the
performance monitoring hardware.
The cache pseudo-locking measurements are modified to use the in-kernel
perf infrastructure. Performance events are created and validated with
the appropriate perf API. The performance counters are still read as
directly as possible to avoid the additional cache hits. This is
done safely by first ensuring with the perf API that the counters have
been programmed correctly and only accessing the counters in an
interrupt disabled section where they are not able to be moved.
As part of the transition to the in-kernel perf infrastructure the L2
and L3 measurements are split into two separate measurements that can
be triggered independently. This separation prevents additional cache
misses incurred during the extra testing code used to decide if a
L2 and/or L3 measurement should be made.

A perf event has many attributes that are maintained in a separate
structure that should be provided when a new perf_event is created.
In preparation for the transition to perf_events the required attribute
structures are created for all the events that may be used in the
measurements. Most attributes for all the events are identical. The
actual configuration, what specifies what needs to be measured, is what
will be different between the events used. This configuration needs to
be done with X86_CONFIG that cannot be used as part of the designated
initializers used here, this will be introduced later.
Although they do look identical at this time the attribute structures
needs to be maintained separately since a perf_event will maintain a
pointer to its unique attributes.
In support of patch testing the new structs are given the unused attribute
until their use in later patches.

Local register variables were used in an effort to improve the
accuracy of the measurement of cache residency of a pseudo-locked
region. This was done to ensure that only the cache residency of
the memory is measured and not the cache residency of the variables
used to perform the measurement.
While local register variables do accomplish the goal they do require
significant care since different architectures have different registers
available. Local register variables also cannot be used with valuable
developer tools like KASAN.
Significant testing has shown that similar accuracy in measurement
results can be obtained by replacing local register variables with
regular local variables.
Make use of local variables in the critical code but do so with
READ_ONCE() to prevent the compiler from merging or refetching reads.
Ensure these variables are initialized before the measurement starts,
and ensure it is only the local variables that are accessed during
the measurement.
With the removal of the local register variables and using READ_ONCE()
there is no longer a motivation for using a direct wrmsr call (that
avoids the additional tracing code that may clobber the local register
variables).

Peter is objecting to the direct PMU access in RDT. Right now the PMU usage
is broken anyway as it is not coordinated with perf.
Until this discussion settled, disable the PMU mechanics by simply
rejecting the type '2' measurement in the resctrl file.

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.

When a resource group enters pseudo-locksetup mode a pseudo_lock_region is
associated with it. When the user writes to the resource group's schemata
file the CBM of the requested pseudo-locked region is entered into the
pseudo_lock_region struct. If any part of pseudo-lock region creation fails
the resource group will remain in pseudo-locksetup mode with the
pseudo_lock_region associated with it.
In case of failure during pseudo-lock region creation care needs to be
taken to ensure that the pseudo_lock_region struct associated with the
resource group is cleared from any pseudo-locking data - especially the
CBM. This is because the existence of a pseudo_lock_region struct with a
CBM is significant in other areas of the code, for example, the display of
bit_usage and initialization of a new resource group.
Fix the error path of pseudo-lock region creation to ensure that the
pseudo_lock_region struct is cleared at each error exit.

There is no simple yes/no test to determine if pseudo-locking was
successful. In order to test pseudo-locking we expose a debugfs file for
each pseudo-locked region that will record the latency of reading the
pseudo-locked memory at a stride of 32 bytes (hardcoded). These numbers
will give us an idea of locking was successful or not since they will
reflect cache hits and cache misses (hardware prefetching is disabled
during the test).
The new debugfs file "pseudo_lock_measure" will, when the
pseudo_lock_mem_latency tracepoint is enabled, record the latency of
accessing each cache line twice.
Kernel tracepoints offer us histograms (when CONFIG_HIST_TRIGGERS is
enabled) that is a simple way to visualize the memory access latency
and immediately see any cache misses. For example, the hist trigger
below before trigger of the measurement will display the memory access
latency and instances at each latency:
echo 'hist:keys=latency' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/resctrl/\
pseudo_lock_mem_latency/trigger
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/resctrl/pseudo_lock_mem_latency/enable

The user requests a pseudo-locked region by providing a schemata to a
resource group that is in the pseudo-locksetup mode. This is the
functionality that consumes the parsed user data and creates the
pseudo-locked region.
First, required information is deduced from user provided data.
This includes, how much memory does the requested bitmask represent,
which CPU the requested region is associated with, and what is the
cache line size of that cache (to learn the stride needed for locking).
Second, a contiguous block of memory matching the requested bitmask is
allocated.
Finally, pseudo-locking is performed. The resource group already has the
allocation that reflects the requested bitmask. With this class of service
active and interference minimized, the allocated memory is loaded into the
cache.

A pseudo-locked region does not have a class of service associated with
it and thus not tracked in the array of control values maintained as
part of the domain. Even so, when the user provides a new bitmask for
another resource group it needs to be checked for interference with
existing pseudo-locked regions.
Additionally only one pseudo-locked region can be created in any cache
hierarchy.
Introduce two utilities in support of above scenarios: (1) a utility
that can be used to test if a given capacity bitmask overlaps with any
pseudo-locked regions associated with a particular cache instance, (2) a
utility that can be used to test if a pseudo-locked region exists within
a particular cache hierarchy.

The locksetup mode is the way in which the user communicates that the
resource group will be used for a pseudo-locked region. Locksetup mode
should thus ensure that all restrictions on a resource group are met before
locksetup mode can be entered. The resource group should also be configured
to ensure that it cannot be modified in unsupported ways when a
pseudo-locked region.
Introduce the support where the request for entering locksetup mode can be
validated. This includes: CDP is not active, no cpus or tasks are assigned
to the resource group, monitoring is not in progress on the resource
group. Once the resource group is determined ready for a pseudo-locked
region it is configured to not allow future changes to these properties.
