CMT (Cache Monitoring Technology) [1] is a H/W feature that reports cache
occupancy of a process. resctrl selftest suite has a unit test to test CMT
for LLC but the test is named as CQM (Cache Quality Monitoring).
Furthermore, the unit test source file is named as cqm_test.c and several
functions, variables, comments, preprocessors and statements widely use
"cqm" as either suffix or prefix. This rampant misusage of CQM for CMT
might confuse someone who is newly looking at resctrl selftests because
this feature is named CMT in the Intel Software Developer's Manual.
Hence, rename all the occurrences (unit test source file name, functions,
variables, comments and preprocessors) of cqm with cmt.
[1] Please see Intel SDM, Volume 3, chapter 17 and section 18 for more
information on CMT: https://software.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/articles/intel-sdm.html

Checking resctrl features call strcmp() to compare feature strings
(e.g. "mba", "cat" etc). The checkings are error prone and don't have
good coding style. Define the constant strings in macros and call
strncmp() to solve the potential issues.

Reinette reported following compilation issue on Fedora 32, gcc version
10.1.1
/usr/bin/ld: cqm_test.o:<src_dir>/cqm_test.c:22: multiple definition of
`cache_size'; cat_test.o:<src_dir>/cat_test.c:23: first defined here
The same issue is reported for long_mask, cbm_mask, count_of_bits etc
variables as well. Compiler isn't happy because these variables are
defined globally in two .c files namely cqm_test.c and cat_test.c and
the compiler during compilation finds that the variable is already
defined (multiple definition error).
Taking a closer look at the usage of these variables reveals that these
variables are used only locally in functions such as cqm_resctrl_val()
(defined in cqm_test.c) and cat_perf_miss_val() (defined in cat_test.c).
These variables are not shared between those functions. So, there is no
need for these variables to be global. Hence, fix this issue by making
them static variables.

David reported a buffer overflow error in the check_results() function of
the cmt unit test and he suggested enabling _FORTIFY_SOURCE gcc compiler
option to automatically detect any such errors.
Feature Test Macros man page describes_FORTIFY_SOURCE as below
"Defining this macro causes some lightweight checks to be performed to
detect some buffer overflow errors when employing various string and memory
manipulation functions (for example, memcpy, memset, stpcpy, strcpy,
strncpy, strcat, strncat, sprintf, snprintf, vsprintf, vsnprintf, gets, and
wide character variants thereof). For some functions, argument consistency
is checked; for example, a check is made that open has been supplied with a
mode argument when the specified flags include O_CREAT. Not all problems
are detected, just some common cases.
If _FORTIFY_SOURCE is set to 1, with compiler optimization level 1 (gcc
-O1) and above, checks that shouldn't change the behavior of conforming
programs are performed.
With _FORTIFY_SOURCE set to 2, some more checking is added, but some
conforming programs might fail.
Some of the checks can be performed at compile time (via macros logic
implemented in header files), and result in compiler warnings; other checks
take place at run time, and result in a run-time error if the check fails.
Use of this macro requires compiler support, available with gcc since
version 4.0."
Fix the buffer overflow error in the check_results() function of the cmt
unit test and enable _FORTIFY_SOURCE gcc check to catch any future buffer
overflow errors.

Cache QoS Monitoring (CQM) selftest starts stressful cache benchmark
with specified size of memory to access the cache. Last Level cache
occupancy reported by CQM should be close to the size of the memory.
