2024-07-11selftests/resctrl: Remove test name comparing from write_bm_pid_to_resctrl()Ilpo Järvinen
write_bm_pid_to_resctrl() uses resctrl_val to check test name which is not a good interface generic resctrl FS functions should provide. Tests define mongrp when needed. Remove the test name check in write_bm_pid_to_resctrl() to only rely on the mongrp parameter being non-NULL. Remove write_bm_pid_to_resctrl() resctrl_val parameter and resctrl_val member from the struct resctrl_val_param that are not used anymore. Similarly, remove the test name constants that are no longer used.

2024-07-11selftests/resctrl: Simplify bandwidth report type handlingIlpo Järvinen
bw_report is only needed for selecting the correct value from the values IMC measured. It is a member in the resctrl_val_param struct and is always set to "reads". The value is then checked in resctrl_val() using validate_bw_report_request() that besides validating the input, assumes it can mutate the string which is questionable programming practice. Simplify handling bw_report: - Convert validate_bw_report_request() into get_bw_report_type() that inputs and returns const char *. Use NULL to indicate error. - Validate the report types inside measure_mem_bw(), not in resctrl_val(). - Pass bw_report to measure_mem_bw() from ->measure() hook because resctrl_val() no longer needs bw_report for anything.

The struct resctrl_val_param is there to customize behavior inside resctrl_val() which is currently not used to full extent and there are number of strcmp()s for test name in resctrl_val done by resctrl_val().

2024-07-11selftests/resctrl: Simplify mem bandwidth file code for MBA & MBM testsIlpo Järvinen
initialize_mem_bw_resctrl() and set_mbm_path() contain complicated set of conditions, each yielding different file to be opened to measure memory bandwidth through resctrl FS. In practice, only two of them are used. For MBA test, ctrlgrp is always provided, and for MBM test both ctrlgrp and mongrp are set. The file used differ between MBA/MBM test, however, MBM test unnecessarily create monitor group because resctrl FS already provides monitoring interface underneath any ctrlgrp too, which is what the MBA selftest uses. Consolidate memory bandwidth file used to the one used by the MBA selftest. Remove all unused branches opening other files to simplify the code.

2023-10-18selftests/resctrl: Fix MBM test failure when MBA unavailableIlpo Järvinen
Commit 20d96b25cc4c ("selftests/resctrl: Fix schemata write error check") exposed a problem in feature detection logic in MBM selftest. If schemata does not support MB:x=x entries, the schemata write to initialize 100% memory bandwidth allocation in mbm_setup() will now fail with -EINVAL due to the error handling corrected by the commit 20d96b25cc4c ("selftests/resctrl: Fix schemata write error check"). That commit just uncovers the failed write, it is not wrong itself. If MB:x=x is not supported by schemata, it is safe to assume 100% memory bandwidth is always set. Therefore, the previously ignored error does not make the MBM test itself wrong. Restore the previous behavior of MBM test by checking MB support before attempting to write it into schemata which results in behavior equivalent to ignoring the write error.

2023-10-13selftests/resctrl: Reduce failures due to outliers in MBA/MBM testsIlpo Järvinen
The initial value of 5% chosen for the maximum allowed percentage difference between resctrl mbm value and IMC mbm value in commit 06bd03a57f8c ("selftests/resctrl: Fix MBA/MBM results reporting format") was "randomly chosen value" (as admitted by the changelog). When running tests in our lab across a large number platforms, 5% difference upper bound for success seems a bit on the low side for the MBA and MBM tests. Some platforms produce outliers that are slightly above that, typically 6-7%, which leads MBA/MBM test frequently failing. Replace the "randomly chosen value" with a success bound that is based on those measurements across large number of platforms by relaxing the MBA/MBM success bound to 8%. The relaxed bound removes the failures due the frequent outliers.

Benchmark command is used in multiple tests so it should not be mutated by the tests but CMT test alters span argument. Due to the order of tests (CMT test runs last), mutating the span argument in CMT test does not trigger any real problems currently. Mark benchmark_cmd strings as const and setup the benchmark command using pointers. Because the benchmark command becomes const, the input arguments can be used directly. Besides being simpler, using the input arguments directly also removes the internal size restriction. CMT test has to create a copy of the benchmark command before altering the benchmark command.

MBM test There is a comment "Set up shemata with 100% allocation on the first run" in function mbm_setup(), but there is an increment bug and the condition "num_of_runs == 0" will never be met and write_schemata() will never be called to set schemata to 100%. Even if write_schemata() is called in MBM test, since it is not supported for MBM test it does not set the schemata. This is currently fine because resctrl_val_parm->mum_resctrlfs is always 1 and umount/mount will be run in each test to set the schemata to 100%. To support the usage when MBM test does not unmount/remount resctrl filesystem before the test starts, fix to call write_schemata() and set schemata properly when the function is called for the first time. Also, remove static local variable 'num_of_runs' because this is not needed as there is resctrl_val_param->num_of_runs which should be used instead like in cat_setup().

2021-04-02selftests/resctrl: Skip the test if requested resctrl feature is not supportedFenghua Yu
There could be two reasons why a resctrl feature might not be enabled on the platform 1. H/W might not support the feature 2. Even if the H/W supports it, the user might have disabled the feature through kernel command line arguments Hence, any resctrl unit test (like cmt, cat, mbm and mba) before starting the test will first check if the feature is enabled on the platform or not. If the feature isn't enabled, then the test returns with an error status. For example, if MBA isn't supported on a platform and if the user tries to run MBA, the output will look like this ok mounting resctrl to "/sys/fs/resctrl" not ok MBA: schemata change But, not supporting a feature isn't a test failure. So, instead of treating it as an error, use the SKIP directive of the TAP protocol.

2021-04-02selftests/resctrl: Fix MBA/MBM results reporting formatFenghua Yu
MBM unit test starts fill_buf (default built-in benchmark) in a new con_mon group (c1, m1) and records resctrl reported mbm values and iMC (Integrated Memory Controller) values every second. It does this for five seconds (randomly chosen value) in total. It then calculates average of resctrl_mbm values and imc_mbm values and if the difference is greater than 300 MB/sec (randomly chosen value), the test treats it as a failure. MBA unit test is similar to MBM but after every run it changes schemata. Checking for a difference of 300 MB/sec doesn't look very meaningful when the mbm values are changing over a wide range. For example, below are the values running MBA test on SKL with different allocations 1. With 10% as schemata both iMC and resctrl mbm_values are around 2000 MB/sec 2. With 100% as schemata both iMC and resctrl mbm_values are around 10000 MB/sec A 300 MB/sec difference between resctrl_mbm and imc_mbm values is acceptable at 100% schemata but it isn't acceptable at 10% schemata because that's a huge difference. So, fix this by checking for percentage difference instead of absolute difference i.e. check if the difference between resctrl_mbm value and imc_mbm value is within 5% (randomly chosen value) of imc_mbm value. If the difference is greater than 5% of imc_mbm value, treat it is a failure.

Checking resctrl features call strcmp() to compare feature strings (e.g. "mba", "cat" etc). The checkings are error prone and don't have good coding style. Define the constant strings in macros and call strncmp() to solve the potential issues.

2020-02-10selftests/resctrl: Add MBM testFenghua Yu
MBM (Memory Bandwidth Monitoring) test is the first implemented selftest. It starts a stressful memory bandwidth benchmark and assigns the bandwidth pid in a resctrl monitoring group. Read and compare perf IMC counter and MBM total bytes for the benchmark. The numbers should be close enough to pass the test. Default benchmark is built-in fill_buf. But users can specify their own benchmark by option "-b". We can add memory bandwidth monitoring for multiple processes in the future.
