Subject: [PATCH v12 09/25] fs/resctrl: Remove redundant calls to resctrl_{alloc,mon}_capable()
Date: Wed, 16 Sep 2026 16:13:04 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260916231320.14502-10-tony.luck@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260916231320.14502-1-tony.luck@intel.com>

resctrl_mon_capable() indicates whether any monitoring resources
are enabled on the system. It does this by scanning all resources.

Redundant calls to resctrl_mon_capable() in hot code paths should
be eliminated. There are two prime examples:

1) mbm_handle_overflow()
This function is called once per second from worker threads running on
each L3 domain. resctrl_mon_capable() is clearly redundant because worker
threads are only created if the MBM monitoring feature is enabled.

2) is_rmid_match()
This is called for every task on the system so making it less expensive is
appealing.  resctrl_mon_capable() is redundant because the function also
checks "r->type == RDTMON_GROUP" and this type of group can only be created
on systems that support monitoring.

3) is_closid_match()
The call to resctrl_alloc_capable() is not just redundant, it is wrong.
On systems that only support monitoring it results in no tasks reported
in the "tasks" file of the resctrl root directory.

Remove the call to resctrl_{alloc,mon}_capable() from each of these functions.
