The split is fairly arbitrary - it was I think ccap gets split into finer grained features later on which seems fine. > just somewhere to split an otherwise large patch, and does help determine if a bug is > going to be visible to user-space or not.

So, if I've understood correctly this leaves you with the following in this patch. mpam_feat_cpor_part, mpam_feat_mbw_part, mpam_feat_mbw_min, mpam_feat_mbw_max, mpam_feat_mbw_prop, mpam_feat_msmon, mpam_feat_msmon_csu, mpam_feat_msmon_csu_hw_nrdy, mpam_feat_msmon_mbwu, mpam_feat_msmon_mbwu_hw_nrdy, Looks like the correct, resctrl based, split. > > > Thanks, > > James Thanks, Ben
