Let's add a return value testing in patch8.
I think we should change cachetune virDomainCachetuneDefFormatHelper
part also. Since it also doesn't check return value of
virResctrlAllocForeachCache.
IMO, Giving a return value of function is always a good practice. ;)
It's also give some spaces for the future extension. If logic inside @cb
became complex. :)

Yes. I just realize put everything relating with ResctrlAlloc into one
patch will give difficulties to the reviewer. I should split this patch.
So how about we split this patch into:
1. introduce virResctrlAllocMemBW and its alloc and free part
2. introduce schemata file parsing part for MBA.
3. introduce functions used to calculate how much memory bandwidth is
used (that is find all groups already create)
4. introduce interface function used to set memory bandwidth
(virResctrlSetMemoryBandwidth).
5. introduce logic create resctrl group with memory bandwidth.

I will add some comments here. And put into a separated patch.
Since patch8 is used to parse XML and create resctrl with MBA
information purely. So it's better we don't introduce this interface
function together with XML parse.
We can introduce interface first and wait our consumer patch8. :)
How do you think?

Will add comments and put this into a dedicated patch with other
schemata file parse and formating functions.

Yes. If host doesn't have MBA feature, however someone try to allocate
memory bandwidth for a VM by mistake. In such a case, we will have
resctrl->membw_info == NULL && ->mem_bw != NULL
Then below check will throw error.

Yes! you are right. Maybe someone try to allocate memory bandwidth on a
host without MBA support.

er.... from code, it seems just a validate function to grantee enough
memory bandwidth available. We can think this function is allocating
memory bandwidth from free_memory_bandwidth. But the
free_memory_bandwidth is calculated by 100 - sum(memory bandwidth of
existing resctrl group). So there is no any management structure used to
track free memory bandwidth as other "allocate" or "free" functions, eg
memory manange code.
Maybe function name need to be adjust. I am not good at naming :(. Do
you have a suggestion?

Yes. Such thing should not happen. Above check means find a resctrl
group with memory bandwidth information on a host without MBA support.
Although it is harmless, we can remove this if you like.
min_bandwidth and bandwidth_granularity checks should be part of this
patch I think. Those parameters are used for sanity check for memory
bandwidth allocation, though they are read in patch 4. Do you agree? :)

Thanks for your review and help! :)
I just want to echo again. We will split this patch as:
1. introduce virResctrlAllocMemBW and its alloc and free part
2. introduce schemata file parsing part for MBA.
3. introduce functions used to calculate how much memory bandwidth is
used (that is find all groups already create)
4. introduce interface function used to set memory bandwidth
(virResctrlSetMemoryBandwidth).
5. introduce logic create resctrl group with memory bandwidth.
I may do some adjustment(merge or split above 5 patch) when try to split
this patch. Anyway, above 5 sub-patches are what we try to achive. How
do you think?
