+"io_alloc_cbm":
+ Capacity bitmasks that describe the portions of cache instances to
+ which I/O traffic from supported I/O devices are routed when "io_alloc"
+ is enabled.
+
+ CBMs are displayed in the following format:
+
+ <cache_id0>=<cbm>;<cache_id1>=<cbm>;...
+
+ Example::
+
+ # cat /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3/io_alloc_cbm
+ 0=ffff;1=ffff
+
+ When CDP is enabled "io_alloc_cbm" associated with the CDP_DATA and CDP_CODE
+ resources may reflect the same values. For example, values read from and
+ written to /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3DATA/io_alloc_cbm may be reflected by
+ /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3CODE/io_alloc_cbm and vice versa.
