18 * Minimum difference in LLC misses between a test with n+1 bits CBM to the
19 * test with n bits is MIN_DIFF_PERCENT_PER_BIT * (n - 1). With e.g. 5 vs 4
20 * bits in the CBM mask, the minimum difference must be at least
21 * MIN_DIFF_PERCENT_PER_BIT * (4 - 1) = 3 percent.
22 *
23 * The relationship between number of used CBM bits and difference in LLC
24 * misses is not expected to be linear. With a small number of bits, the
25 * margin is smaller than with larger number of bits. For selftest purposes,
26 * however, linear approach is enough because ultimately only pass/fail
27 * decision has to be made and distinction between strong and stronger
28 * signal is irrelevant.
