Subject: [PATCH v2 0/4] selftests/resctrl: Enable MBM and MBA tests on AMD


The MBM (Memory Bandwidth Monitoring) and MBA (Memory Bandwidth Allocation)
features are not enabled for AMD systems. The reason was lack of perf
counters to compare the resctrl test results.

Starting with the commit
25e56847821f ("perf/x86/amd/uncore: Add memory controller support"), AMD
now supports the UMC (Unified Memory Controller) perf events. These events
can be used to compare the test results.

This series adds the support to detect the UMC events and enable MBM/MBA
tests for AMD systems.

v2: Changes.
    a. Rebased on top of tip/master (Apr 25, 2024)
    b. Addressed Ilpo comments except the one about close call.
       It seems more clear to keep READ and WRITE separate.

    c. Used ksft_perror call when applicable.
    d. Added vendor check for non contiguous CBM check.
