Within mba_setup() the programmed bandwidth delay value starts at the maximum (100, or rather ALLOCATION_MAX) and progresses towards ALLOCATION_MIN by decrementing with ALLOCATION_STEP. The programmed bandwidth delay should never be negative, so representing it with an unsigned int is most appropriate. This may introduce confusion because of the "allocation > ALLOCATION_MAX" check used to check wraparound of the subtraction. Modify the mba_setup() flow to start at the minimum, ALLOCATION_MIN, and incrementally, with ALLOCATION_STEP steps, adjust the bandwidth delay value. This avoids wraparound while making the purpose of "allocation > ALLOCATION_MAX" clear and eliminates the need for the "allocation < ALLOCATION_MIN" check.

resctrl_tests - resctrl file system test suit
Authors:
Fenghua Yu <fenghua.yu@intel.com>

resctrl_tests tests various resctrl functionalities and interfaces including
both software and hardware.
Currently it supports Memory Bandwidth Monitoring test and Memory Bandwidth
Allocation test on Intel RDT hardware. More tests will be added in the future.
And the test suit can be extended to cover AMD QoS and ARM MPAM hardware
as well.
resctrl_tests can be run with or without kselftest framework.
WITH KSELFTEST FRAMEWORK
=======================
BUILD
-----
Build executable file "resctrl_tests" from top level directory of the kernel source:
$ make -C tools/testing/selftests TARGETS=resctrl
RUN
---
Run resctrl_tests as sudo or root since the test needs to mount resctrl file
system and change contents in the file system.
Using kselftest framework will run all supported tests within resctrl_tests:
$ sudo make -C tools/testing/selftests TARGETS=resctrl run_tests
More details about kselftest framework can be found in
Documentation/dev-tools/kselftest.rst.
WITHOUT KSELFTEST FRAMEWORK
===========================
BUILD
-----
Build executable file "resctrl_tests" from this directory(tools/testing/selftests/resctrl/):
$ make
RUN
---
Run resctrl_tests as sudo or root since the test needs to mount resctrl file
system and change contents in the file system.
Executing the test without any parameter will run all supported tests:
$ sudo ./resctrl_tests
OVERVIEW OF EXECUTION
=====================
A test case has four stages:
- setup: mount resctrl file system, create group, setup schemata, move test
process pids to tasks, start benchmark.
- execute: let benchmark run
- verify: get resctrl data and verify the data with another source, e.g.
perf event.
- teardown: umount resctrl and clear temporary files.
ARGUMENTS
=========
Parameter '-h' shows usage information.
usage: resctrl_tests [-h] [-b "benchmark_cmd [options]"] [-t test list] [-n no_of_bits]
-b benchmark_cmd [options]: run specified benchmark for MBM, MBA and CMT default benchmark is builtin fill_buf
-t test list: run tests specified in the test list, e.g. -t mbm,mba,cmt,cat
-n no_of_bits: run cache tests using specified no of bits in cache bit mask
-p cpu_no: specify CPU number to run the test. 1 is default
-h: help
