Subject: [v4 PATCH 1/1] x86/resctrl: Add "*" shorthand to set io_alloc CBM for all domains
Date: Sun, 25 Jan 2026 12:17:52 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260125171752.3374930-2-atomlin@atomlin.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260125171752.3374930-1-atomlin@atomlin.com>
Introduce a wildcard domain ID selector "*" for the io_alloc_cbm
interface. This allows a user to update the Capacity Bitmask (CBM)
across all cache domains in a single operation.
Currently, configuring io_alloc_cbm requires an explicit ID for each
domain, which is cumbersome on systems with high core counts and
numerous cache clusters. Supporting a wildcard selector simplifies
automation and management tasks.
For example, a user can now write "*=0" to the io_alloc_cbm file to
program every domain to the hardware-defined minimum CBM. Note that the
value provided must still adhere to the constraints defined in the
resource's min_cbm_bits.
