Subject: [PATCH v3 5/7] x86/resctrl: Allow AET to use PMT/TPMI as loadable modules
Date: Fri, 27 Mar 2026 16:02:06 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260327230208.18094-6-tony.luck@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260327230208.18094-1-tony.luck@intel.com>
The resctrl subsystem is always built into the base kernel. Currently,
enumerating Application Event Tracing (AET) features requires functions
from INTEL_PMT_TELEMETRY and INTEL_TPMI. Because resctrl makes direct calls
to these functions, it enforces a strict dependency requiring both PMT and
TPMI to be built-in.
This is overly restrictive. Use the symbol_get() mechanism to allow resctrl
to resolve these symbols at runtime, whether they reside in the base kernel
or in loadable modules.
Use symbol_get() to obtain the addresses of intel_pmt_get_regions_by_feature()
and intel_pmt_put_feature_group() and use indirect calls using function
pointers.
Change the pre-mount hook from once-only on first mount to call the hook
every time. Add hooks for mount success/failure and unmount so that
the hold on the INTEL_PMT_TELEMETRY module is only while the resctrl
file system is mounted. Unmount now cleans up all AET structures and
disables AET events.
