Hi Maciej,

The CAT non-contiguous selftests have to read the file responsible for reporting support of non-contiguous CBMs in Intel CAT. Then the test
"in Intel CAT" -> "in kernel (resctrl)"
compares if that information matches what is reported by CPUID output.
Add a generic helper function to read a chosen functionality support information.
Since this is a generic function that just reads a value from a file it cannot be assumed that the value represents functionality support.

Considering that this is intended to be a new generic utility, could you please add some function documentation?
+{
- char file_path[PATH_MAX];
- FILE *fp;
- int ret;
- snprintf(file_path, sizeof(file_path), "%s/%s/%s", INFO_PATH, resource,
filename);- fp = fopen(file_path, "r");
- if (!fp) {
perror("Error in opening sparse_masks file\n");
The error messages do not match the goal of this function to be generic. Also, please note the recent cleanup done by Ilpo to replace the perror() by ksft_perror().
return -1;- }
- if (fscanf(fp, "%u", &ret) <= 0) {
I find this to be potentially confusing. The function claims to be a generic utility to read a value from a resctrl file ... but hidden within is that the value is required to be unsigned, which is then cast into an int. This could be made more specific and robust with something like below: int resource_info_unsigned_get(const char *resource, const char *filename, unsigned int *val)
The return value will be the result of the request. If resource_info_unsigned_get() returns 0 then @val will contain the value read.
perror("Could not get sparse_masks contents\n");fclose(fp);return -1;- }
- fclose(fp);
- return ret;
+}
