This series fixes numerous issues in the resctrl selftests on aarch64,
where they currently misreport failures.
Patch 1 adds aarch64 implementations of cl_flush() and sb() in
fill_buf.c so cache flushes are no longer silent no-ops.
Patch 2 teaches detect_vendor() about aarch64 (which exposes no
vendor_id in /proc/cpuinfo) and lets arch_supports_noncont_cat()
return true for ARM, fixing spurious L3_NONCONT_CAT failures.
Patch 3 skips L3_CAT at feature-check time when MPAM legitimately
reports every CBM bit as shareable, instead of failing the test.
Changes since v1:
- Make the 3 patches into a series
Richard Cheng (3):
selftests/resctrl: Skip L3_CAT when no exclusive cache portion exists
selftests/resctrl: Implement cl_flush() and sb() for aarch64
selftests/resctrl: Recognise aarch64 as a vendor for L3_NONCONT_CAT
