x86, sched: Add new topology for multi-NUMA-node CPUs
I'm getting the spew below when booting with Haswell (Xeon
E5-2699 v3) CPUs and the "Cluster-on-Die" (CoD) feature enabled
in the BIOS. It seems similar to the issue that some folks from
AMD ran in to on their systems and addressed in this commit:
161270fc1f9d ("x86/smp: Fix topology checks on AMD MCM CPUs")
Both these Intel and AMD systems break an assumption which is
being enforced by topology_sane(): a socket may not contain more
than one NUMA node.
AMD special-cased their system by looking for a cpuid flag. The
Intel mode is dependent on BIOS options and I do not know of a
way which it is enumerated other than the tables being parsed
during the CPU bringup process. In other words, we have to trust
the ACPI tables <shudder>.
This detects the situation where a NUMA node occurs at a place in
the middle of the "CPU" sched domains. It replaces the default
topology with one that relies on the NUMA information from the
firmware (SRAT table) for all levels of sched domains above the
hyperthreads.
This also fixes a sysfs bug. We used to freak out when we saw
the "mc" group cross a node boundary, so we stopped building the
MC group. MC gets exported as the 'core_siblings_list' in
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/topology/ and this caused CPUs with
the same 'physical_package_id' to not be listed together in
'core_siblings_list'. This violates a statement from
Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-system-cpu:
core_siblings: internal kernel map of cpu#'s hardware threads
within the same physical_package_id.
core_siblings_list: human-readable list of the logical CPU
numbers within the same physical_package_id as cpu#.
The sysfs effects here cause an issue with the hwloc tool where
it gets confused and thinks there are more sockets than are
physically present.
Before this patch, there are two packages:
# cd /sys/devices/system/cpu/
# cat cpu*/topology/physical_package_id | sort | uniq -c
18 0
18 1
But 4 _sets_ of core siblings:
# cat cpu*/topology/core_siblings_list | sort | uniq -c
9 0-8
9 18-26
9 27-35
9 9-17
After this set, there are only 2 sets of core siblings, which
is what we expect for a 2-socket system.
# cat cpu*/topology/physical_package_id | sort | uniq -c
18 0
18 1
# cat cpu*/topology/core_siblings_list | sort | uniq -c
18 0-17
18 18-35
Example spew:
...
NMI watchdog: enabled on all CPUs, permanently consumes one hw-PMU counter.
