And this would be combined with part of patch2 and patch3

Could/should this list values that aren't prefixed by "llc_" and
"mbm_"
to validate your code?
Will add some 'fake' features to the list, and make more tests.
To be done in next version patch.
There's only 1 set of data but it's printed twice - that's the reason for my
comment in patch2 about duplication of the same data that is unnecessary.
What if there were 10 bank id's, 100? 1000? - lots of waste. Only 2, no big deal.
<cache>
<bank id='0' level='3' type='both' size='55'
unit='MiB' cpus='0-21,44-65'>
<control granularity='2816' unit='KiB' type='both'
maxAllocs='16'/>
<monitor threshold='270336' unit='B'
maxAllocs='176'>
<feature name='llc_occupancy'/>
</monitor>
</bank>
<bank id='1' level='3' type='both' size='55'
unit='MiB' cpus='22-43,66-87'>
<control granularity='2816' unit='KiB' type='both'
maxAllocs='16'/>
<monitor threshold='270336' unit='B'
maxAllocs='176'>
<feature name='llc_occupancy'/>
</monitor>
</bank>
</cache>
Above is the cache capabilites section, dumped from my system through
'virsh capabilities' command.
This is a 2-socket E5-2699v4 CPU(22 core with CAT/CMT enabled and CDP disabled)
system, as you said, the cache monitor capability is printed more than once.
And I need to point out that the following cache 'control' element is also
printed for twice, it met the same situation you mentioned for cache monitor.
"<control granularity='2816' unit='KiB' type='both'
maxAllocs='16'/>"
After you have read my considerations(in the reply to your review of patch 2)
for reason why I used current disign, if you still think it not wise to
make it duplicated, let's find a proper place to keep the data and eliminate
such kind of duplication.
We can make any changes to make our design more reasonable in the design
stage.
Thanks for your kind revew!
