    x86/intel_rdt/cqm: Add cpus file support · a9fcf862
    Vikas Shivappa authored
    The cpus file is extended to support resource monitoring. This is used
    to over-ride the RMID of the default group when running on specific
    CPUs. It works similar to the resource control. The "cpus" and
    "cpus_list" file is present in default group, ctrl_mon groups and
    monitor groups.
    
    Each "cpus" file or cpu_list file reads a cpumask or list showing which
    CPUs belong to the resource group. By default all online cpus belong to
    the default root group. A CPU can be present in one "ctrl_mon" and one
    "monitor" group simultaneously. They can be added to a resource group by
    writing the CPU to the file. When a CPU is added to a ctrl_mon group it
    is automatically removed from the previous ctrl_mon group. A CPU can be
    added to a monitor group only if it is present in the parent ctrl_mon
    group and when a CPU is added to a monitor group, it is automatically
    removed from the previous monitor group. When CPUs go offline, they are
    automatically removed from the ctrl_mon and monitor groups.
