Subject: [PATCH 04/23] resctrl: Expose per-control status in resource_schemata
Date: Thu, 16 Jul 2026 14:02:54 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260716210329.2914625-4-fenghuay@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1784217438.git.fenghuay@nvidia.com>

Emulated MB controls can be individually present or absent depending on
what the underlying MSC advertises, but user space has no way to tell
which controls under resource_schemata are actually backed by hardware.

Track this per control and expose it as a read-only "status" file for
scalar controls, reporting "enabled" or "disabled". The state is stored
as resctrl_membw::no_mbw_hw, which defaults to false so every control is
reported "enabled" (hardware-backed) unless an architecture explicitly
marks it as lacking MBW hardware of its own. This keeps the common case
correct on all architectures with no per-arch initialization code.

This commit only adds the generic field, the "status" file, and the
default (hardware-backed) reporting. No architecture writes no_mbw_hw
yet, so every control reports "enabled" until a backend sets it. On
MPAM the field is assigned for the emulated, hardware-less MB control in
a later patch that adds the node-scoped MB_NODE control.
