+/*
+ * Feedback loop for MBA software controller (mba_sc)
+ *
+ * mba_sc is a feedback loop where we periodically read MBM counters and
+ * adjust the bandwidth percentage values via the IA32_MBA_THRTL_MSRs so
+ * that:
+ *
+ * current bandwdith(cur_bw) < user specified bandwidth(user_bw)
+ *
+ * This uses the MBM counters to measure the bandwidth and MBA throttle
+ * MSRs to control the bandwidth for a particular rdtgrp. It builds on the
+ * fact that resctrl rdtgroups have both monitoring and control.
+ *
+ * The frequency of the checks is 1s and we just tag along the MBM overflow
+ * timer. Having 1s interval makes the calculation of bandwidth simpler.
+ *
+ * Although MBA's goal is to restrict the bandwidth to a maximum, there may
+ * be a need to increase the bandwidth to avoid uncecessarily restricting
+ * the L2 <-> L3 traffic.
+ *
+ * Since MBA controls the L2 external bandwidth where as MBM measures the
+ * L3 external bandwidth the following sequence could lead to such a
+ * situation.
+ *
+ * Consider an rdtgroup which had high L3 <-> memory traffic in initial
+ * phases -> mba_sc kicks in and reduced bandwidth percentage values -> but
+ * after some time rdtgroup has mostly L2 <-> L3 traffic.
+ *
+ * In this case we may restrict the rdtgroup's L2 <-> L3 traffic as its
+ * throttle MSRs already have low percentage values. To avoid
+ * unnecessarily restricting such rdtgroups, we also increase the bandwidth.
