[PATCH v12 02/12] xen/arm: add initial support for LLC coloring on arm64
Posted by Carlo Nonato 1 week, 6 days ago
LLC coloring needs to know the last level cache layout in order to make the
best use of it. This can be probed by inspecting the CLIDR_EL1 register,
so the Last Level is defined as the last level visible by this register.
Note that this excludes system caches in some platforms.

Static memory allocation and cache coloring are incompatible because static
memory can't be guaranteed to use only colors assigned to the domain.
Panic during DomUs creation when both are enabled.

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

v12:
- fixed build errors
v11:
- removed useless #define from processor.h
v10:
- moved CONFIG_NUMA check in arch/arm/Kconfig
v9:
- no changes
v8:
- no changes
v7:
- only minor changes
v6:
- get_llc_way_size() now checks for at least separate I/D caches
v5:
- used - instead of _ for filenames
- moved static-mem check in this patch
- moved dom0 colors parsing in next patch
- moved color allocation and configuration in next patch
- moved check_colors() in next patch
- colors are now printed in short form
v4:
- added "llc-coloring" cmdline option for the boot-time switch
- dom0 colors are now checked during domain init as for any other domain
- fixed processor.h masks bit width
- check for overflow in parse_color_config()
- check_colors() now checks also that colors are sorted and unique

 LLC size and number of ways are probed automatically by default.
 
+In the Arm implementation, this is done by inspecting the CLIDR_EL1 register.
+This means that other system caches that aren't visible there are ignored.
+
 LLC specs can be manually set via the above command line parameters. This
 bypasses any auto-probing and it's used to overcome failing situations, such as
 flawed probing logic, or for debugging/testing purposes.

+"xen,static-mem" isn't supported when coloring is enabled
+#########################################################
+
+In the domain configuration, "xen,static-mem" allows memory to be statically
+allocated to the domain. This isn't possible when LLC coloring is enabled,
+because that memory can't be guaranteed to use only colors assigned to the
+domain.
