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: Rename resource ID to domain ID

Kernel-side calls the instances of a resource domains.

Change the resource_id naming in the selftest code to domain_id to

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: Restore the CPU affinity after CAT test

CAT test does not reset the CPU affinity after the benchmark.
This is relatively harmless as is because CAT test is the last
benchmark to run, however, more tests may be added later.

Store the CPU affinity the first time taskset_benchmark() is run and
add taskset_restore() which the test can call to reset the CPU mask to
its original value.

selftests/resctrl: Split measure_cache_vals()

measure_cache_vals() does a different thing depending on the test case
that called it:
- For CAT, it measures LLC misses through perf.
- For CMT, it measures LLC occupancy through resctrl.

Split these two functionalities into own functions the CAT and CMT
tests can call directly. Replace passing the struct resctrl_val_param
parameter with the filename because it's more generic and all those
functions need out of resctrl_val.

selftests/resctrl: Return -1 instead of errno on error

A number of functions in the resctrl selftests return errno. It is
problematic because errno is positive which is often counterintuitive.
Also, every site returning errno prints the error message already with
ksft_perror() so there is not much added value in returning the precise
error code.

Simply convert all places returning errno to return -1 that is typical
userspace error code in case of failures.

While at it, improve resctrl_val() comment to state that 0 means the
test was run (either pass or fail).

selftests/resctrl: Convert perror() to ksft_perror() or ksft_print_msg()

The resctrl selftest code contains a number of perror() calls. Some of
them come with hash character and some don't. The kselftest framework
provides ksft_perror() that is compatible with test output formatting
so it should be used instead of adding custom hash signs.

Some perror() calls are too far away from anything that sets error.
For those call sites, ksft_print_msg() must be used instead.

Convert perror() to ksft_perror() or ksft_print_msg().

Other related changes:
- Remove hash signs
- Remove trailing stops & newlines from ksft_perror()
- Add terminating newlines for converted ksft_print_msg()
- Use consistent capitalization
- Small fixes/tweaks to typos & grammar of the messages
- Extract error printing out of PARENT_EXIT() to be able to
differentiate

selftests/resctrl: Move run_benchmark() to a more fitting file

resctrlfs.c contains mostly functions that interact in some way with
resctrl FS entries while functions inside resctrl_val.c deal with
measurements and benchmarking.

run_benchmark() is located in resctrlfs.c even though it's purpose
is not interacting with the resctrl FS but to execute cache checking
logic.

Move run_benchmark() to resctrl_val.c just before resctrl_val() that
makes use of run_benchmark(). Make run_benchmark() static since it's
not used between multiple files anymore.

selftests/resctrl: Extend signal handler coverage to unmount on receiving signal

Unmounting resctrl FS has been moved into the per test functions in
resctrl_tests.c by commit caddc0fbe495 ("selftests/resctrl: Move
resctrl FS mount/umount to higher level"). In case a signal (SIGINT,
SIGTERM, or SIGHUP) is received, the running selftest is aborted by
ctrlc_handler() which then unmounts resctrl fs before exiting. The
current section between signal_handler_register() and
signal_handler_unregister(), however, does not cover the entire
duration when resctrl FS is mounted.

Move signal_handler_register() and signal_handler_unregister() calls
from per test files into resctrl_tests.c to properly unmount resctrl
fs. In order to not add signal_handler_register()/unregister() n times,
create helpers test_prepare() and test_cleanup().

Do not call ksft_exit_fail_msg() in test_prepare() but only in the per
test function to keep the control flow cleaner without adding calls to
exit() deep into the call chain.

Adjust child process kill() call in ctrlc_handler() to only be invoked
if the child was already forked.

selftests/resctrl: Make benchmark command const and build it with pointers

Benchmark command is used in multiple tests so it should not be
mutated by the tests but CMT test alters span argument. Due to the
order of tests (CMT test runs last), mutating the span argument in CMT
test does not trigger any real problems currently.

Mark benchmark_cmd strings as const and setup the benchmark command
using pointers. Because the benchmark command becomes const, the input
arguments can be used directly. Besides being simpler, using the input
arguments directly also removes the internal size restriction.

CMT test has to create a copy of the benchmark command before altering
the benchmark command.

selftests/resctrl: Move resctrl FS mount/umount to higher level

A few places currently lack umounting resctrl FS on error paths:
- cmt_resctrl_val() has multiple error paths with direct return.
- cat_perf_miss_val() has multiple error paths with direct return.
In addition, validate_resctrl_feature_request() is called by
run_mbm_test() and run_mba_test(). Neither MBA nor MBM test tries to
umount resctrl FS.

Each and every test does require resctrl FS to be present already for
feature check. Thus, it makes sense to just mount it on higher level in
resctrl_tests.c and properly pair it with umount.

Move resctrl FS (re)mount/unmount into each test function in
resctrl_tests.c. Make feature validation to simply check that resctrl
FS is mounted.

As there's the final umount in main() before this change, the selftest
should not leave resctrl FS behind after the tests even if one of the
forementioned paths is taken (thus, no fixes tag).

selftests/resctrl: Commonize the signal handler register/unregister for all tests

After creating a child process with fork() in CAT test, if a signal such
as SIGINT is received, the parent process will be terminated immediately,
and therefore the child process will not be killed and also resctrlfs is
not unmounted.

There is a signal handler registered in CMT/MBM/MBA tests, which kills
child process, unmount resctrlfs, cleanups result files, etc., if a
signal such as SIGINT is received.

Commonize the signal handler registered for CMT/MBM/MBA tests and
reuse it in CAT.

To reuse the signal handler to kill child process use global bm_pid
instead of local bm_pid.

Also, since the MBA/MBA/CMT/CAT are run in order, unregister the signal
handler at the end of each test so that the signal handler cannot be
inherited by other tests.

warn: 'bw_imc' unsigned <= 0

tools/testing/selftests/resctrl/resctrl_val.c:549 measure_vals()

These warnings are reported because
1. measure_vals() declares 'bw_imc' and 'bw_resc_end' as unsigned long
variables
2. Return value of get_mem_bw_imc() and get_mem_bw_resctrl() are assigned
to 'bw_imc' and 'bw_resc_end' respectively
3. The returned values are checked for <= 0 to see if the calls failed

Checking for < 0 for an unsigned value doesn't make any sense.

get_mem_bw_resctrl() such that they now accept reference to a variable
and set the variable appropriately upon success and return 0, else return
< 0 on error.

selftests/resctrl: Fix incorrect parsing of iMC counters

iMC (Integrated Memory Controller) counters are usually at
"/sys/bus/event_source/devices/" and are named as "uncore_imc_<n>".
num_of_imcs() function tries to count number of such iMC counters so that
it could appropriately initialize required number of perf_attr structures
that could be used to read these iMC counters.

num_of_imcs() function assumes that all the directories under this path
that start with "uncore_imc" are iMC counters. But, on some systems there
could be directories named as "uncore_imc_free_running" which aren't iMC
counters. Trying to read from such directories will result in "not found
file" errors and MBM/MBA tests will fail.

Hence, fix the logic in num_of_imcs() such that it looks at the first
character after "uncore_imc_" to check if it's a numerical digit or not. If
it's a digit then the directory represents an iMC counter, else, skip the
directory.

selftests/resctrl: Rename CQM test as CMT test

CMT (Cache Monitoring Technology) [1] is a H/W feature that reports cache
occupancy of a process. resctrl selftest suite has a unit test to test CMT
for LLC but the test is named as CQM (Cache Quality Monitoring).
Furthermore, the unit test source file is named as cqm_test.c and several
functions, variables, comments, preprocessors and statements widely use
"cqm" as either suffix or prefix. This rampant misusage of CQM for CMT
might confuse someone who is newly looking at resctrl selftests because
this feature is named CMT in the Intel Software Developer's Manual.

Hence, rename all the occurrences (unit test source file name, functions,
variables, comments and preprocessors) of cqm with cmt.
