commit ef43c30858754d99373a63dff33280a9969b49bc upstream.
The initial value of 5% chosen for the maximum allowed percentage
difference between resctrl mbm value and IMC mbm value in
commit 06bd03a57f8c ("selftests/resctrl: Fix MBA/MBM results reporting
format") was "randomly chosen value" (as admitted by the changelog).
When running tests in our lab across a large number platforms, 5%
difference upper bound for success seems a bit on the low side for the
MBA and MBM tests. Some platforms produce outliers that are slightly
above that, typically 6-7%, which leads MBA/MBM test frequently
failing.
Replace the "randomly chosen value" with a success bound that is based
on those measurements across large number of platforms by relaxing the
MBA/MBM success bound to 8%. The relaxed bound removes the failures due
the frequent outliers.

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.
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.
