- * Change schemata. Write schemata to specified
- * con_mon grp, mon_grp in resctrl FS.
- * Run 5 times in order to get average values.
+ * Minimum difference in LLC misses between a test with n+1 bits CBM to the
+ * test with n bits is MIN_DIFF_PERCENT_PER_BIT * (n - 1). With e.g. 5 vs 4
+ * bits in the CBM mask, the minimum difference must be at least
+ * MIN_DIFF_PERCENT_PER_BIT * (4 - 1) = 3 percent.
+ *
+ * The relationship between number of used CBM bits and difference in LLC
+ * misses is not expected to be linear. With a small number of bits, the
+ * margin is smaller than with larger number of bits. For selftest purposes,
+ * however, linear approach is enough because ultimately only pass/fail
+ * decision has to be made and distinction between strong and stronger
