[PATCH v4 00/29] selftests/resctrl: CAT test improvements & generalized test framework

[Ilpo Järvinen]

Hi all,

Here's v4 series to improve resctrl selftests with generalized test
framework and rewritten CAT test.

The series contains following improvements:

- Excludes shareable bits from CAT test allocation to avoid interference
- Replaces file "sink" with a volatile variable
- Alters read pattern to defeat HW prefetcher optimizations
- Rewrites CAT test to make the CAT test reliable and truly measure
  if CAT is working or not
- Introduces generalized test framework making easier to add new tests
- Lots of other cleanups & refactoring

This series has been tested across a large number of systems from
different generations.

v4:
- Reworded a few error prints
- Changelog improvements
- fprintf()'s error handling changed ksft_perror() -> ksft_print_msg()
- Keep using ksft_*() instead of fprintf() in get_bit_mask()
- Check against div-by-zero
- Adjust one return type

v3:
- New patches to handle return errno, perror() and return value comments
- Tweak changelogs
- Moved error printout removal to other patch
- Zero bit CBM returns error
- Tweak comments
- Make get_shareable_mask() static
- Return directly without storing result into ret variable first
- llc -> LLC
- Altered changelog and removed "the whole time" wording because
  llc occu results are still unsigned long
- Altered changelog's wording to not say "a volatile pointer"
- Make min_diff_percent and MIN_DIFF_PERCENT_PER_BIT unsigned long
- Add patch to restore CPU affinity after CAT test
- Move uparams clear into init function
- Add CPU vendor ID bitmask comment
- Use test_resource_feature_check(test) in CMT
- "feature" -> "resource" in function comment

v2:
- Postpone adding L2 CAT test as more investigations are necessary
- Add patch to remove ctrlc_handler() from wrong place
- Improvements to changelogs
- Function comments improvements & comment cleanups
- Move some parts of the changes into more logical patch
- If checks: buf == NULL -> !buf
- Variable naming:
        - p -> buf
        - cbm_mask_path -> cbm_path
- Function naming:
        - get_cbm_mask() -> get_full_cbm()
        - cache_size() -> cache_portion_size()
- Use PATH_MAX
- Improved cache_portion_size() parameter names
- int count -> unsigned int
- Pass filename to measurement taking functions instead of
  resctrl_val_param
- !lines ? : reversal
- Removed bogus static from function local variable
- Open perf fd only once, reset & enable in the innermost test loop
- Add perf fd ioctl() error handling
- Add patch to change compiler optimization prevention "sink" from file
  to volatile variable
- Remove cpu_no and resource (the latter was added in v1) members from
  resctrl_val_param (pass uparams and test where those are needed)
- Removed ARRAY_SIZE() macro
- Add patch to rename "resource_id" to "domain_id"


Ilpo Järvinen (29):
  selftests/resctrl: Convert perror() to ksft_perror() or
    ksft_print_msg()

[PATCH v4 01/29] selftests/resctrl: Convert perror() to ksft_perror() or ksft_print_msg()

[Ilpo Järvinen]

The resctrl selftest code contains a number of perror() calls. Some of
them come with hash character and some don't. The kselftest framework
provides ksft_perror() that is compatible with test output formatting
so it should be used instead of adding custom hash signs.

Some perror() calls are too far away from anything that sets error.
For those call sites, ksft_print_msg() must be used instead.

Convert perror() to ksft_perror() or ksft_print_msg().

Other related changes:
- Remove hash signs
- Remove trailing stops & newlines from ksft_perror()
- Add terminating newlines for converted ksft_print_msg()
- Use consistent capitalization
- Small fixes/tweaks to typos & grammar of the messages
- Extract error printing out of PARENT_EXIT() to be able to
  differentiate

v4:
- fprintf() error handling changed ksft_perror() -> ksft_print_msg()
- Fixed one typo in message
- Add a few more details into related changes list in the changelog

v3:
- New patch

[PATCH v4 02/29] selftests/resctrl: Return -1 instead of errno on error

[Ilpo Järvinen]

A number of functions in the resctrl selftests return errno. It is
problematic because errno is positive which is often counterintuitive.
Also, every site returning errno prints the error message already with
ksft_perror() so there is not much added value in returning the precise
error code.

Simply convert all places returning errno to return -1 that is typical
userspace error code in case of failures.

While at it, improve resctrl_val() comment to state that 0 means the
test was run (either pass or fail).

[PATCH v4 03/29] selftests/resctrl: Don't use ctrlc_handler() outside signal handling

[Ilpo Järvinen]

perf_event_open_llc_miss() calls ctrlc_handler() to cleanup if
perf_event_open() returns an error. Those cleanups, however, are not
the responsibility of perf_event_open_llc_miss() and it thus interferes
unnecessarily with the usual cleanup pattern. Worse yet,
ctrlc_handler() calls exit() in the end preventing the ordinary cleanup
done in the calling function from executing.

ctrlc_handler() should only be used as a signal handler, not during
normal error handling.

Remove call to ctrlc_handler() from perf_event_open_llc_miss(). As
unmounting resctrlfs and test cleanup are already handled properly
by error rollbacks in the calling functions, no other changes are
necessary.

[PATCH v4 04/29] selftests/resctrl: Change function comments to say < 0 on error

[Ilpo Järvinen]

A number function comments state the function return non-zero on
failure but in reality they can only return 0 on success and < 0 on
error.

Update the comments to say < 0 on error to match the behavior.

While at it, improve cat_val() comment to state that 0 means the test
was run (either pass or fail).

[PATCH v4 05/29] selftests/resctrl: Split fill_buf to allow tests finer-grained control

[Ilpo Järvinen]

MBM, MBA and CMT test cases call run_fill_buf() that in turn calls
fill_cache() to alloc and loop indefinitely around the buffer. This
binds buffer allocation and running the benchmark into a single bundle
so that a selftest cannot allocate a buffer once and reuse it. CAT test
doesn't want to loop around the buffer continuously and after rewrite
it needs the ability to allocate the buffer separately.

Split buffer allocation out of fill_cache() into alloc_buffer(). This
change is part of preparation for the new CAT test that allocates a
buffer and does multiple passes over the same buffer (but not in an
infinite loop).

[PATCH v4 06/29] selftests/resctrl: Refactor fill_buf functions

[Ilpo Järvinen]

There are unnecessary nested calls in fill_buf.c:
  - run_fill_buf() calls fill_cache()
  - alloc_buffer() calls malloc_and_init_memory()

Simplify the code flow and remove those unnecessary call levels by
moving the called code inside the calling function and remove the
duplicated error print.

Resolve the difference in run_fill_buf() and fill_cache() parameter
name into 'buf_size' which is more descriptive than 'span'. Also, while
moving the allocation related code, rename 'p' into 'buf' to be
consistent in naming the variables.

[PATCH v4 07/29] selftests/resctrl: Refactor get_cbm_mask() and rename to get_full_cbm()

[Ilpo Järvinen]

Callers of get_cbm_mask() are required to pass a string into which the
capacity bitmask (CBM) is read. Neither CAT nor CMT tests need the
bitmask as string but just convert it into an unsigned long value.

Another limitation is that the bit mask reader can only read
.../cbm_mask files.

Generalize the bit mask reading function into get_bit_mask() such that
it can be used to handle other files besides the .../cbm_mask and
handles the unsigned long conversion within get_bit_mask() using
fscanf(). Change get_cbm_mask() to use get_bit_mask() and rename it to
get_full_cbm() to better indicate what the function does.

Return error from get_full_cbm() if the bitmask is zero for some reason
because it makes the code more robust as the selftests naturally assume
the bitmask has some bits.

Also mark cache_type const while at it and remove useless comments that
are related to processing of CBM bits.

[PATCH v4 08/29] selftests/resctrl: Mark get_cache_size() cache_type const

[Ilpo Järvinen]

get_cache_size() does not modify cache_type so it could be const.

Mark cache_type const so that const char * can be passed to it. This
prevents warnings once many of the test parameters are marked const.

[PATCH v4 09/29] selftests/resctrl: Create cache_portion_size() helper

[Ilpo Järvinen]

CAT and CMT tests calculate size of the cache portion for the n-bits
cache allocation on their own.

Add cache_portion_size() helper that calculates size of the cache
portion for the given number of bits and use it to replace the existing
span calculations. This also prepares for the new CAT test that will
need to determine the size of the cache portion also during results
processing.

Rename also 'cache_size' local variables to 'cache_total_size' to
prevent misinterpretations.

[PATCH v4 10/29] selftests/resctrl: Exclude shareable bits from schemata in CAT test

[Ilpo Järvinen]

CAT test doesn't take shareable bits into account, i.e., the test might
be sharing cache with some devices (e.g., graphics).

Introduce get_mask_no_shareable() and use it to provision an
environment for CAT test where the allocated LLC is isolated better.
Excluding shareable_bits may create hole(s) into the cbm_mask, thus add
a new helper count_contiguous_bits() to find the longest contiguous set
of CBM bits.

create_bit_mask() is needed by an upcoming CAT test rewrite so make it
available in resctrl.h right away.

[PATCH v4 11/29] selftests/resctrl: Split measure_cache_vals()

[Ilpo Järvinen]

measure_cache_vals() does a different thing depending on the test case
that called it:
  - For CAT, it measures LLC misses through perf.
  - For CMT, it measures LLC occupancy through resctrl.

Split these two functionalities into own functions the CAT and CMT
tests can call directly. Replace passing the struct resctrl_val_param
parameter with the filename because it's more generic and all those
functions need out of resctrl_val.

[PATCH v4 14/29] selftests/resctrl: Remove nested calls in perf event handling

[Ilpo Järvinen]

Perf event handling has functions that are the sole caller of another
perf event handling related function:
  - reset_enable_llc_perf() calls perf_event_open_llc_miss()
  - perf_event_measure() calls get_llc_perf()

Remove the extra layer of calls to make the code easier to follow by
moving the code into the calling function.

[PATCH v4 15/29] selftests/resctrl: Consolidate naming of perf event related things

[Ilpo Järvinen]

Naming for perf event related functions, types, and variables is
inconsistent.

Make struct read_format and all functions related to perf events start
with "perf_". Adjust variable names towards the same direction but use
shorter names for variables where appropriate (pe prefix).

[PATCH v4 16/29] selftests/resctrl: Improve perf init

[Ilpo Järvinen]

struct perf_event_attr initialization is spread into
perf_event_initialize() and perf_event_attr_initialize() and setting
->config is hardcoded by the deepest level.

perf_event_attr init belongs to perf_event_attr_initialize() so move it
entirely there. Rename the other function
perf_event_initialized_read_format().

Call each init function directly from the test as they will take
different parameters (especially true after the perf related global
variables are moved to local variables).

[PATCH v4 17/29] selftests/resctrl: Convert perf related globals to locals

[Ilpo Järvinen]

Perf related variables pea_llc_miss, pe_read, and pe_fd are globals in
cache.c.

Convert them to locals for better scoping and make pea_llc_miss simpler
by renaming it to pea. Make close(pe_fd) handling easier to understand
by doing it inside cat_val().

Make also sizeof()s use safer way to determine the right struct.

[PATCH v4 18/29] selftests/resctrl: Move cat_val() to cat_test.c and rename to cat_test()

[Ilpo Järvinen]

The main CAT test function is called cat_val() and resides in cache.c
which is illogical.

Rename the function to cat_test() and move it into cat_test.c.

[PATCH v4 19/29] selftests/resctrl: Open perf fd before start & add error handling

[Ilpo Järvinen]

Perf fd (pe_fd) is opened, reset, and enabled during every test the CAT
selftest runs. Also, ioctl(pe_fd, ...) calls are not error checked even
if ioctl() could return an error.

Open perf fd only once before the tests and only reset and enable the
counter within the test loop. Add error checking to pe_fd ioctl()
calls.

[PATCH v4 20/29] selftests/resctrl: Replace file write with volatile variable

[Ilpo Järvinen]

The fill_buf code prevents compiler optimizating the entire read loop
away by writing the final value of the variable into a file. While it
achieves the goal, writing into a file requires significant amount of
work within the innermost test loop and also error handling.

A simpler approach is to take advantage of volatile. Writing through
a pointer to a volatile variable is enough to prevent compiler from
optimizing the write away, and therefore compiler cannot remove the
read loop either.

Add a volatile 'value_sink' into resctrl_tests.c and make fill_buf to
write into it. As a result, the error handling in fill_buf.c can be
simplified.

[PATCH v4 21/29] selftests/resctrl: Read in less obvious order to defeat prefetch optimizations

[Ilpo Järvinen]

When reading memory in order, HW prefetching optimizations will
interfere with measuring how caches and memory are being accessed. This
adds noise into the results.

Change the fill_buf reading loop to not use an obvious in-order access
using multiply by a prime and modulo.

Using a prime multiplier with modulo ensures the entire buffer is
eventually read. 23 is small enough that the reads are spread out but
wrapping does not occur very frequently (wrapping too often can trigger
L2 hits more frequently which causes noise to the test because getting
the data from LLC is not required).

It was discovered that not all primes work equally well and some can
cause wildly unstable results (e.g., in an earlier version of this
patch, the reads were done in reversed order and 59 was used as the
prime resulting in unacceptably high and unstable results in MBA and
MBM test on some architectures).

[PATCH v4 22/29] selftests/resctrl: Rewrite Cache Allocation Technology (CAT) test

[Ilpo Järvinen]

CAT test spawns two processes into two different control groups with
exclusive schemata. Both the processes alloc a buffer from memory
matching their allocated LLC block size and flush the entire buffer out
of caches. Since the processes are reading through the buffer only once
during the measurement and initially all the buffer was flushed, the
test isn't testing CAT.

Rewrite the CAT test to allocate a buffer sized to half of LLC. Then
perform a sequence of tests with different LLC alloc sizes starting
from half of the CBM bits down to 1-bit CBM. Flush the buffer before
each test and read the buffer twice. Observe the LLC misses on the
second read through the buffer. As the allocated LLC block gets smaller
and smaller, the LLC misses will become larger and larger giving a
strong signal on CAT working properly.

The new CAT test is using only a single process because it relies on
measured effect against another run of itself rather than another
process adding noise. The rest of the system is set to use the CBM bits
not used by the CAT test to keep the test isolated.

Replace count_bits() with count_contiguous_bits() to get the first bit
position in order to be able to calculate masks based on it.

This change has been tested with a number of systems from different
generations.

[PATCH v4 23/29] selftests/resctrl: Restore the CPU affinity after CAT test

[Ilpo Järvinen]

CAT test does not reset the CPU affinity after the benchmark.
This is relatively harmless as is because CAT test is the last
benchmark to run, however, more tests may be added later.

Store the CPU affinity the first time taskset_benchmark() is run and
add taskset_restore() which the test can call to reset the CPU mask to
its original value.

[PATCH v4 24/29] selftests/resctrl: Create struct for input parameters

[Ilpo Järvinen]

resctrl_tests reads a set of parameters and passes them individually
for each tests which causes variations in the call signature between
the tests.

Add struct input_params to hold all input parameters. It can be easily
passed to every test without varying the call signature.

Signed-off-by: Ilpo Järvinen <ilpo.jarvinen@linux.intel.com>

- Move uparams clear into init function

[PATCH v4 25/29] selftests/resctrl: Introduce generalized test framework

[Ilpo Järvinen]

Each test currently has a "run test" function in per test file and
another resctrl_tests.c. The functions in resctrl_tests.c are almost
identical.

Generalize the one in resctrl_tests.c such that it can be shared
between all of the tests. It makes adding new tests easier and removes
the per test if () forests.

Also add comment to CPU vendor IDs that they must be defined as bits
for a bitmask.

Signed-off-by: Ilpo Järvinen <ilpo.jarvinen@linux.intel.com>
Reviewed-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com>
---

v3:
- Add CPU vendor ID bitmask comment
- Use test_resource_feature_check(test) in CMT

[PATCH v4 26/29] selftests/resctrl: Pass write_schemata() resource instead of test name

[Ilpo Järvinen]

write_schemata() takes the test name as an argument and determines the
relevant resource based on the test name. Such mapping from name to
resource does not really belong to resctrlfs.c that should provide
only generic, test-independent functions.

Pass the resource stored in the test information structure to
write_schemata() instead of the test name. The new API is also more
flexible as it enables to use write_schemata() for more than one
resource within a test.

While touching the sprintf(), move the unnecessary %c that is always
'=' directly into the format string.

"L2"/"L3" conversion to integer is embedded into get_cache_size()
which prevents reuse.

Create a helper for the cache string to integer conversion to make
it reusable.

[PATCH v4 29/29] selftests/resctrl: Get domain id from cache id

[Ilpo Järvinen]

Domain id is acquired differently depending on CPU. AMD tests use id
from L3 cache, whereas CPUs from other vendors base the id on topology
package id. In order to support L2 CAT test, this has to be
generalized.

The driver side code seems to get the domain ids from cache ids so the
approach used by the AMD branch seems to match the kernel-side code. It
will also work with L2 domain IDs as long as the cache level is
generalized.

Using the topology id was always fragile due to mismatch with the
kernel-side way to acquire the domain id. It got incorrect domain id,
e.g., when Cluster-on-Die (CoD) is enabled for CPU (but CoD is not well
suited for resctrl in the first place so it has not been a big issue if
tests don't work correctly with it).

Taking all the above into account, generalize acquiring the domain id
by taking it from the cache id and do not hard-code the cache level.

Just in case somebody tries this series out against kernel v6.7-rc5 ...

A problematic perf patch made it into v6.7-rc5 (v6.7-rc4 and before are fine).
When testing this series against kernel v6.7-rc5 the splat reported at [1]
is triggered. A perf fix [2] is already queued up so all will be fine when testing
this series against a kernel with [2] merged.
