Enable QOS feature on AMD. Following QoS sub-features are supported on AMD if the underlying hardware supports it: - L3 Cache allocation enforcement - L3 Cache occupancy monitoring - L3 Code-Data Prioritization support - Memory Bandwidth Enforcement (Allocation) The specification is available at: https://developer.amd.com/wp-content/resources/56375.pdf There are differences in the way some of the features are implemented. Separate those functions and add those as vendor specific functions. The major difference is in MBA feature: - AMD uses CPUID leaf 0x80000020 to initialize the MBA features. - AMD uses direct bandwidth value instead of delay based on bandwidth values. - MSR register base addresses are different for MBA. - AMD allows non-contiguous L3 cache bit masks.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
