When the AMD QoS feature CDP (code and data prioritization) is enabled or disabled, the CDP bit in MSR 0000_0C81 is written on one of the CPUs in an L3 domain (core complex). That is not correct - the CDP bit needs to be updated on all the logical CPUs in the domain. This was not spelled out clearly in the spec earlier. The specification has been updated and the updated document, "AMD64 Technology Platform Quality of Service Extensions Publication # 56375 Revision: 1.02 Issue Date: October 2020" is available now. Refer the section: Code and Data Prioritization. Fix the issue by adding a new flag arch_has_per_cpu_cfg in rdt_cache data structure.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
