Subject: x86/intel_rdt/mba_sc: Feedback loop to dynamically update mem
 bandwidth
Git-commit: de73f38f768021610bd305cf74ef3702fcf6a1eb
Patch-mainline: v4.18-rc1
References: fate#325749

mba_sc is a feedback loop where we periodically read MBM counters and
try to restrict the bandwidth below a max value so the below is always
true:

  "current bandwidth(cur_bw) < user specified bandwidth(user_bw)"

The frequency of these checks is currently 1s and we just tag along the
MBM overflow timer to do the updates. Doing it once in a second also
makes the calculation of bandwidth easy. The steps of increase or
decrease of bandwidth is the minimum granularity specified by the
hardware.

Although the MBA's goal is to restrict the bandwidth below a maximum,
there may be a need to even increase the bandwidth. Since MBA controls
the L2 external bandwidth where as MBM measures the L3 external
bandwidth, we may end up restricting some rdtgroups unnecessarily. This
may happen in the sequence where rdtgroup (set of jobs) had high
"L3 <-> memory traffic" in initial phases -> mba_sc kicks in and reduced
bandwidth percentage values -> but after some it has mostly "L2 <-> L3"
traffic. In this scenario mba_sc increases the bandwidth percentage when
there is lesser memory traffic.

+ * Feedback loop for MBA software controller (mba_sc)
+ *
+ * mba_sc is a feedback loop where we periodically read MBM counters and
+ * adjust the bandwidth percentage values via the IA32_MBA_THRTL_MSRs so
+ * that:
+ *
+ *   current bandwdith(cur_bw) < user specified bandwidth(user_bw)
+ *
+ * This uses the MBM counters to measure the bandwidth and MBA throttle
+ * MSRs to control the bandwidth for a particular rdtgrp. It builds on the
+ * fact that resctrl rdtgroups have both monitoring and control.
+ *
+ * The frequency of the checks is 1s and we just tag along the MBM overflow
+ * timer. Having 1s interval makes the calculation of bandwidth simpler.
+ *
+ * Although MBA's goal is to restrict the bandwidth to a maximum, there may
+ * be a need to increase the bandwidth to avoid uncecessarily restricting
+ * the L2 <-> L3 traffic.
+ *
+ * Since MBA controls the L2 external bandwidth where as MBM measures the
+ * L3 external bandwidth the following sequence could lead to such a
+ * situation.
+ *
+ * Consider an rdtgroup which had high L3 <-> memory traffic in initial
+ * phases -> mba_sc kicks in and reduced bandwidth percentage values -> but
+ * after some time rdtgroup has mostly L2 <-> L3 traffic.
+ *
+ * In this case we may restrict the rdtgroup's L2 <-> L3 traffic as its
+ * throttle MSRs already have low percentage values.  To avoid
+ * unnecessarily restricting such rdtgroups, we also increase the bandwidth.
