[PATCH v4 16/24] x86/resctrl: Make resctrl_mounted checks explicit
Posted by James Morse 2 years, 8 months ago
The rdt_enable_key is switched when resctrl is mounted, and used to
prevent a second mount of the filesystem. It also enables the
architecture's context switch code.

This requires another architecture to have the same set of static-keys,
as resctrl depends on them too. The existing users of these static-keys
are implicitly also checking if the filesystem is mounted.

Make the resctrl_mounted checks explicit: resctrl can keep track of
whether it has been mounted once. This doesn't need to be combined with
whether the arch code is context switching the CLOSID.

rdt_mon_enable_key is never used just to test that resctrl is mounted,
but does also have this implication. Add a resctrl_mounted to all uses
of rdt_mon_enable_key. This will allow rdt_mon_enable_key to be swapped
with a helper in a subsequent patch.

This will allow the static-key changing to be moved behind resctrl_arch_
calls.

I do not think that this new comment captures this work. This code is when a new
domain comes online and directories need to be created in all the existing
resource groups. This includes the default resource group as well as those created
after resctrl was mounted. The new comment states that this is "deferred until mount
time by rdt_get_tree() calling mkdir_mondata_all()" - but I do not think that is 
accurate since the reader is point to the directories created just for the default
resource group.
Perhaps something like:

	/*
	 * If the filesystem is not mounted then only the default resource group
	 * exists. Creation of its directories is deferred until mount time
	 * by rdt_get_tree() calling mkdir_mondata_all().
	 */

I do think that the comment explaining what the code does is helpful though.
Can you please also keep the comment about what is done in the case when resctrl
is indeed mounted?
