Resctrl subsystem can support two monitoring modes, "mbm_event" or "default".
In mbm_event mode, monitoring event can only accumulate data while it is
backed by a hardware counter. In "default" mode, resctrl assumes there is
a hardware counter for each event within every CTRL_MON and MON group.
Introduce mbm_assign_mode resctrl file to switch between mbm_event and default
modes.
Example:
To list the MBM monitor modes supported:
$ cat /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3_MON/mbm_assign_mode
[mbm_event]
default
To enable the "mbm_event" counter assignment mode:
$ echo "mbm_event" > /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3_MON/mbm_assign_mode
To enable the "default" monitoring mode:
$ echo "default" > /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3_MON/mbm_assign_mode
Reset MBM event counters automatically as part of changing the mode. Clear
both architectural and non-architectural event states to prevent overflow
conditions during the next event read. Clear assignable counter configuration
on all the domains. Also, enable auto assignment when switching to "mbm_event"
mode.

Enable the mbm_l3_assignments resctrl file to be used to modify counter
assignments of CTRL_MON and MON groups when the "mbm_event" counter
assignment mode is enabled.
Process the assignment modifications in the following format:
<Event>:<Domain id>=<Assignment state>;<Domain id>=<Assignment state>
Event: A valid MBM event in the
/sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3_MON/event_configs directory.
Domain ID: A valid domain ID. When writing, '*' applies the changes
to all domains.
Assignment states:
_ : Unassign a counter.
e : Assign a counter exclusively.
Examples:
$ cd /sys/fs/resctrl
$ cat /sys/fs/resctrl/mbm_L3_assignments
mbm_total_bytes:0=e;1=e
mbm_local_bytes:0=e;1=e
To unassign the counter associated with the mbm_total_bytes event on
domain 0:
$ echo "mbm_total_bytes:0=_" > mbm_L3_assignments
$ cat /sys/fs/resctrl/mbm_L3_assignments
mbm_total_bytes:0=_;1=e
mbm_local_bytes:0=e;1=e
To unassign the counter associated with the mbm_total_bytes event on
all the domains:
$ echo "mbm_total_bytes:*=_" > mbm_L3_assignments
$ cat /sys/fs/resctrl/mbm_L3_assignments
mbm_total_bytes:0=_;1=_
mbm_local_bytes:0=e;1=e

Introduce the mbm_L3_assignments resctrl file associated with CTRL_MON and MON
resource groups to display the counter assignment states of the resource group

Introduce a user-configurable option that determines if a counter will
automatically be assigned to an RMID, event pair when its associated
monitor group is created via mkdir. Accessible when "mbm_event" counter

When "mbm_event" counter assignment mode is enabled, users can modify the
event configuration by writing to the 'event_filter' resctrl file. The event
configurations for mbm_event mode are located in
/sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3_MON/event_configs/.
Update the assignments of all CTRL_MON and MON resource groups when the event

The "mbm_event" counter assignment mode allows the user to assign a hardware
counter to an RMID, event pair and monitor the bandwidth as long as it is
assigned. The user can specify the memory transaction(s) for the counter to
track.
When this mode is supported, the /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3_MON/event_configs
directory contains a sub-directory for each MBM event that can be assigned to
a counter. The MBM event sub-directory contains a file named "event_filter"
that is used to view and modify which memory transactions the MBM event is
configured with.
Create /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3_MON/event_configs directory on resctrl mount
and pre-populate it with directories for the two existing MBM events:
mbm_total_bytes and mbm_local_bytes. Create the "event_filter" file within
each MBM event directory with the needed *show() that displays the memory
transactions with which the MBM event is configured.
Example:
$ mount -t resctrl resctrl /sys/fs/resctrl
$ cd /sys/fs/resctrl/
$ cat info/L3_MON/event_configs/mbm_total_bytes/event_filter
local_reads,remote_reads,local_non_temporal_writes,
remote_non_temporal_writes,local_reads_slow_memory,

When "mbm_event" counter assignment mode is enabled, the architecture requires
a counter ID to read the event data.
Introduce an is_mbm_cntr field in struct rmid_read to indicate whether counter
assignment mode is in use.
Update the logic to call resctrl_arch_cntr_read() and resctrl_arch_reset_cntr()
when the assignment mode is active. Report 'Unassigned' in case the user attempts
to read an event without assigning a hardware counter.

Introduce the resctrl file "mbm_assign_mode" to list the supported counter
assignment modes.
The "mbm_event" counter assignment mode allows users to assign a hardware
counter to an RMID, event pair and monitor bandwidth usage as long as it is
assigned. The hardware continues to track the assigned counter until it is
explicitly unassigned by the user. Each event within a resctrl group can be
assigned independently in this mode.
On AMD systems "mbm_event" mode is backed by the ABMC (Assignable Bandwidth
Monitoring Counters) hardware feature and is enabled by default.
The "default" mode is the existing mode that works without the explicit
counter assignment, instead relying on dynamic counter assignment by hardware
that may result in hardware not dedicating a counter resulting in monitoring
data reads returning "Unavailable".
Provide an interface to display the monitor modes on the system.
$ cat /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3_MON/mbm_assign_mode
[mbm_event]
default
Add IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_RESCTRL_ASSIGN_FIXED) check to support Arm64.
On x86, CONFIG_RESCTRL_ASSIGN_FIXED is not defined. On Arm64, it will be
defined when the "mbm_event" mode is supported.
Add IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_RESCTRL_ASSIGN_FIXED) check early to ensure the user
interface remains compatible with upcoming Arm64 support. IS_ENABLED() safely
evaluates to 0 when the configuration is not defined.
As a result, for MPAM, the display would be either:
[default]
or
[mbm_event]

Resctrl is a filesystem interface to hardware that provides cache
allocation policy and bandwidth control for groups of tasks or CPUs.
To support more than one architecture, resctrl needs to live in /fs/.
Move the code that is concerned with the filesystem interface to
/fs/resctrl.
