[PATCH v9 06/13] tools: add support for cache coloring configuration
Posted by Carlo Nonato 4 weeks, 1 day ago
Add a new "llc_colors" parameter that defines the LLC color assignment for
a domain. The user can specify one or more color ranges using the same
syntax used everywhere else for color config described in the
documentation.
The parameter is defined as a list of strings that represent the color
ranges.

Documentation is also added.

Based on original work from: Luca Miccio <lucmiccio@gmail.com>

v9:
- turned warning into error in case of coloring not enabled
v8:
- warn the user in case of coloring not supported at hypervisor level
v7:
- removed unneeded NULL check before xc_hypercall_buffer_free() in
  xc_domain_set_llc_colors()
v6:
- no edits
v5:
- added LIBXL_HAVE_BUILDINFO_LLC_COLORS
- moved color configuration in xc_domain_set_llc_colors() cause of the new
  hypercall
v4:
- removed overlapping color ranges checks during parsing
- moved hypercall buffer initialization in libxenctrl
