Subject: [PATCH 6/7] x86/resctrl: Update documentation with Sub-NUMA cluster changes
Date: Thu, 26 Jan 2023 10:41:56 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230126184157.27626-7-tony.luck@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230126184157.27626-1-tony.luck@intel.com>

With Sub-NUMA Cluster mode enabled the scope of monitoring resources is
per-NODE instead of per-L3 cache. Suffices of directories with "L3" in
their name refer to Sun-NUMA nodes instead of L3 cache ids.
