| |
Legacy resctrl features are enumerated by X86_FEATURE_* flags. These may be overridden by quirks to disable features in the case of errata. Users can use kernel command line options to either disable a feature, or to force enable a feature that was disabled by a quirk.
Provide similar functionality for hardware features that do not have an X86_FEATURE_* flag. Unlike other features that are tied to X86_FEATURE_* flags, these are defined by the feature name.
Users may force a feature to be disabled. E.g. "rdt=!perf" will ensure that none of the perf telemetry events are enabled.
Resctrl architecture code may disable a feature that does not provide full functionality. Users may override that decision. E.g. "rdt=energy" will enable any available energy telemetry events even if they do not provide full functionality.
An optional guid can be included for more granular control of features sharing a name. E.g. rdt=energy:0x12345 will only override disabling of the energy feature with guid = 0x12345.
