selftests/resctrl: Ensure measurements skip initialization of default benchmark

The CMT, MBA, and MBM tests rely on the resctrl_val() wrapper to
start and run a benchmark while providing test specific flows
via callbacks to do test specific configuration and measurements.

At a high level, the resctrl_val() flow is:
a) Start by fork()ing a child process that installs a signal
handler for SIGUSR1 that, on receipt of SIGUSR1, will
start running a benchmark.
b) Assign the child process created in (a) to the resctrl
control and monitoring group that dictates the memory and
cache allocations with which the process can run and will
contain all resctrl monitoring data of that process.
c) Once parent and child are considered "ready" (determined via
a message over a pipe) the parent signals the child (via
SIGUSR1) to start the benchmark, waits one second for the
benchmark to run, and then starts collecting monitoring data
for the tests, potentially also changing allocation
configuration depending on the various test callbacks.

A problem with the above flow is the "black box" view of the
benchmark that is combined with an arbitrarily chosen
"wait one second" before measurements start. No matter what
the benchmark does, it is given one second to initialize before
measurements start.

The default benchmark "fill_buf" consists of two parts,
first it prepares a buffer (allocate, initialize, then flush), then it
reads from the buffer (in unpredictable ways) until terminated.
Depending on the system and the size of the buffer, the first "prepare"
part may not be complete by the time the one second delay expires. Test
measurements may thus start before the work needing to be measured runs.

Split the default benchmark into its "prepare" and "runtime" parts and
simplify the resctrl_val() wrapper while doing so. This same split
cannot be done for the user provided benchmark (without a user
interface change), so the current behavior is maintained for user
provided benchmark.

Assign the test itself to the control and monitoring group and run the
"prepare" part of the benchmark in this context, ensuring it runs with
required cache and memory bandwidth allocations. With the benchmark
preparation complete it is only needed to fork() the "runtime" part
of the benchmark (or entire user provided benchmark).

Keep the "wait one second" delay before measurements start. For the
default "fill_buf" benchmark this time now covers only the "runtime"
portion that needs to be measured. For the user provided benchmark this
delay maintains current behavior.

selftests/resctrl: Make benchmark parameter passing robust

The benchmark used during the CMT, MBM, and MBA tests can be provided by
the user via (-b) parameter, if not provided the default "fill_buf"
benchmark is used. The user is additionally able to override
any of the "fill_buf" default parameters when running the tests with
"-b fill_buf <fill_buf parameters>".

The "fill_buf" parameters are managed as an array of strings. Using an
array of strings is complex because it requires transformations to/from
strings at every producer and consumer. This is made worse for the
individual tests where the default benchmark parameters values may not
be appropriate and additional data wrangling is required. For example,
the CMT test duplicates the entire array of strings in order to replace
one of the parameters.

More issues appear when combining the usage of an array of strings with
the use case of user overriding default parameters by specifying
"-b fill_buf <parameters>". This use case is fragile with opportunities
to trigger a SIGSEGV because of opportunities for NULL pointers to exist
in the array of strings. For example, by running below (thus by specifying
"fill_buf" should be used but all parameters are NULL):
$ sudo resctrl_tests -t mbm -b fill_buf

Replace the "array of strings" parameters used for "fill_buf" with
new struct fill_buf_param that contains the "fill_buf" parameters that
can be used directly without transformations to/from strings. Two
instances of struct fill_buf_param may exist at any point in time:
* If the user provides new parameters to "fill_buf", the
user parameter structure (struct user_params) will point to a
fully initialized and immutable struct fill_buf_param
containing the user provided parameters.
* If "fill_buf" is the benchmark that should be used by a test,
then the test parameter structure (struct resctrl_val_param)
will point to a fully initialized struct fill_buf_param. The
latter may contain (a) the user provided parameters verbatim,
(b) user provided parameters adjusted to be appropriate for
the test, or (c) the default parameters for "fill_buf" that
is appropriate for the test if the user did not provide
"fill_buf" parameters nor an alternate benchmark.

The existing behavior of CMT test is to use test defined value for the
buffer size even if the user provides another value via command line.
This behavior is maintained since the test requires that the buffer size
matches the size of the cache allocated, and the amount of cache
allocated can instead be changed by the user with the "-n" command line
parameter.

Code exists to support measurements of write memory bandwidth
but there exists no path with which this code can execute.

While code exists for write memory bandwidth measurement
there has not yet been a use case for it. Remove this unused code.
Rename relevant functions to include "read" so that it is clear
that it relates only to memory bandwidth reads, while renaming
the functions also add consistency by changing the "membw"
instances to more prevalent "mem_bw".

selftests/resctrl: Only support measured read operation

The CMT, MBM, and MBA tests rely on a benchmark to generate
memory traffic. By default this is the "fill_buf" benchmark that
can be replaced via the "-b" command line argument.

The original intent of the "-b" command line parameter was
to replace the default "fill_buf" benchmark, but the implementation
also exposes an alternative use case where the "fill_buf" parameters
itself can be modified. One of the parameters to "fill_buf" is the
"operation" that can be either "read" or "write" and indicates
whether the "fill_buf" should use "read" or "write" operations on the
allocated buffer.

While replacing "fill_buf" default parameters is technically possible,
replacing the default "read" parameter with "write" is not supported
because the MBA and MBM tests only measure "read" operations. The
"read" operation is also most appropriate for the CMT test that aims
to use the benchmark to allocate into the cache.

Avoid any potential inconsistencies between test and measurement by
removing code for unsupported "write" operations to the buffer.
Ignore any attempt from user space to enable this unsupported test
configuration, instead always use read operations.

Keep the initialization of the, now unused, "fill_buf" parameters
to reserve these parameter positions since it has been exposed as an API.
Future parameter additions cannot use these parameter positions.

selftests/resctrl: Remove "once" parameter required to be false

The CMT, MBM, and MBA tests rely on a benchmark that runs while
the test makes changes to needed configuration (for example memory
bandwidth allocation) and takes needed measurements. By default
the "fill_buf" benchmark is used and by default (via its
"once = false" setting) "fill_buf" is configured to run until
terminated after the test completes.

An unintended consequence of enabling the user to override the
benchmark also enables the user to change parameters to the
"fill_buf" benchmark. This enables the user to set "fill_buf" to
only cycle through the buffer once (by setting "once = true")
and thus breaking the CMT, MBA, and MBM tests that expect
workload/interference to be reflected by their measurements.

Prevent user space from changing the "once" parameter and ensure
that it is always false for the CMT, MBA, and MBM tests.

resctrl selftests discover system properties via a variety of sysfs files.
The MBM and MBA tests need to discover the event and umask with which to

This is done by parsing the contents of
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/uncore_imc_<imc instance>/events/cas_count_read
Similarly, the resctrl selftests discover the cache size via
/sys/bus/cpu/devices/cpu<id>/cache/index<index>/size.

Take care to do bounds checking when using fscanf() to read the
contents of files into a string buffer because by default fscanf() assumes
arbitrarily long strings. If the file contains more bytes than the array
can accommodate then an overflow will occur.

Provide a maximum field width to the conversion specifier to protect
against array overflow. The maximum is one less than the array size because
string input stores a terminating null byte that is not covered by the
maximum field width.

selftests/resctrl: Protect against array overrun during iMC config parsing

The MBM and MBA tests need to discover the event and umask with which to
configure the performance event used to measure read memory bandwidth.
This is done by parsing the
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/uncore_imc_<imc instance>/events/cas_count_read
file for each iMC instance that contains the formatted
output: "event=<event>,umask=<umask>"

Parsing of cas_count_read contents is done by initializing an array of
MAX_TOKENS elements with tokens (deliminated by "=,") from this file.
Remove the unnecessary append of a delimiter to the string needing to be
parsed. Per the strtok() man page: "delimiter bytes at the start or end of
the string are ignored". This has no impact on the token placement within
the array.

After initialization, the actual event and umask is determined by
parsing the tokens directly following the "event" and "umask" tokens
respectively.

Iterating through the array up to index "i < MAX_TOKENS" but then
accessing index "i + 1" risks array overrun during the final iteration.
Avoid array overrun by ensuring that the index used within for
loop will always be valid.

selftests/resctrl: Simplify bandwidth report type handling

bw_report is only needed for selecting the correct value from the
values IMC measured. It is a member in the resctrl_val_param struct and
is always set to "reads". The value is then checked in resctrl_val()
using validate_bw_report_request() that besides validating the input,
assumes it can mutate the string which is questionable programming
practice.

Simplify handling bw_report:

- Convert validate_bw_report_request() into get_bw_report_type() that
inputs and returns const char *. Use NULL to indicate error.

- Validate the report types inside measure_mem_bw(), not in
resctrl_val().

- Pass bw_report to measure_mem_bw() from ->measure() hook because
resctrl_val() no longer needs bw_report for anything.

selftests/resctrl: Simplify cleanup in ctrl-c handler

Ctrl-c handler isn't aware of what test is currently running. Because of
that it executes all cleanups even if they aren't necessary. Since the
ctrl-c handler uses the sa_sigaction system no parameters can be passed
to it as function arguments.

Add a global variable to make ctrl-c handler aware of the currently run
test and only execute the correct cleanup callback.

selftests/resctrl: Get domain id from cache id

Domain id is acquired differently depending on CPU. AMD tests use id
from L3 cache, whereas CPUs from other vendors base the id on topology
package id.

selftests/resctrl: Get domain id from cache id

Domain id is acquired differently depending on CPU. AMD tests use id
from L3 cache, whereas CPUs from other vendors base the id on topology
package id. In order to support L2 CAT test, this has to be
generalized.

The driver side code seems to get the domain ids from cache ids so the
approach used by the AMD branch seems to match the kernel-side code. It
will also work with L2 domain IDs as long as the cache level is
generalized.

Using the topology id was always fragile due to mismatch with the
kernel-side way to acquire the domain id. It got incorrect domain id,
e.g., when Cluster-on-Die (CoD) is enabled for CPU (but CoD is not well
suited for resctrl in the first place so it has not been a big issue if
tests don't work correctly with it).

Taking all the above into account, generalize acquiring the domain id
by taking it from the cache id and do not hard-code the cache level.

selftests/resctrl: Pass write_schemata() resource instead of test name

write_schemata() takes the test name as an argument and determines the
relevant resource based on the test name. Such mapping from name to
resource does not really belong to resctrlfs.c that should provide
only generic, test-independent functions.

Pass the resource stored in the test information structure to
write_schemata() instead of the test name. The new API is also more
flexible as it enables to use write_schemata() for more than one
resource within a test.

While touching the sprintf(), move the unnecessary %c that is always
'=' directly into the format string.

selftests/resctrl: Create struct for input parameters

resctrl_tests reads a set of parameters and passes them individually

passed to every test without varying the call signature.
