The maximum value of the mask is defined by each cpu model (and may be different for different cache levels). It is found using CPUID, but is also provided in the "info" directory of -the resctrl file system in "info/{resource}/cbm_mask". X86 hardware +the resctrl file system in "info/{resource}/cbm_mask". Intel hardware requires that these masks have all the '1' bits in a contiguous block. So 0x3, 0x6 and 0xC are legal 4-bit masks with two bits set, but 0x5, 0x9 and 0xA are not. On a system with a 20-bit mask each bit represents 5% |
