This adds a test to verify proper functioning of the rfi flush capability implemented to mitigate meltdown. The test works by measuring the number of L1d cache misses encountered while loading data from memory. Across a system call, since the L1d cache is flushed when rfi_flush is enabled, the number of cache misses is expected to be relative to the number of cachelines corresponding to the data being loaded. The current system setting is reflected via powerpc/rfi_flush under debugfs (assumed to be /sys/kernel/debug/). This test verifies the expected result with rfi_flush enabled as well as when it is disabled.

README
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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
