Comparing with v4 [1], v5 drops the "x-l2-cache-topo" option and adds A/R/T tags (Thanks for all the reviews, comments and tests!). No further changes since v4 other than the removal of x-l2-cache-topo. Welcome your comments! PS: About the idea to implement generic smp cache topology, we're considerring to port the original x-l2-cache-topo option to smp [2]. Just like: -smp cpus=4,sockets=2,cores=2,threads=1, \ l3-cache=socket,l2-cache=core,l1-i-cache=core,l1-d-cache=core Any feedback about this direction is also welcomed! ;-) --- # Introduction This series adds the cluster support for x86 PC machine, which allows x86 can use smp.clusters to configure the module level CPU topology of x86. This series also is the preparation to help x86 to define the more flexible cache topology, such as having multiple cores share the same L2 cache at cluster level. (That was what x-l2-cache-topo did, and we will explore a generic way.) About why we don't share L2 cache at cluster and need a configuration way, pls see section: ## Why not share L2 cache in cluster directly. # Background The "clusters" parameter in "smp" is introduced by ARM [3], but x86 hasn't supported it. At present, x86 defaults L2 cache is shared in one core, but this is not enough. There're some platforms that multiple cores share the same L2 cache, e.g., Alder Lake-P shares L2 cache for one module of Atom cores [4], that is, every four Atom cores shares one L2 cache. Therefore, we need the new CPU topology level (cluster/module). Another reason is for hybrid architecture. cluster support not only provides another level of topology definition in x86, but would also provide required code change for future our hybrid topology support. # Overview ## Introduction of module level for x86 "cluster" in smp is the CPU topology level which is between "core" and die. For x86, the "cluster" in smp is corresponding to the module level [4], which is above the core level. So use the "module" other than "cluster" in x86 code. And please note that x86 already has a cpu topology level also named "cluster" [5], this level is at the upper level of the package. Here, the cluster in x86 cpu topology is completely different from the "clusters" as the smp parameter. After the module level is introduced, the cluster as the smp parameter will actually refer to the module level of x86. ## Why not share L2 cache in cluster directly Though "clusters" was introduced to help define L2 cache topology [3], using cluster to define x86's L2 cache topology will cause the compatibility problem: Currently, x86 defaults that the L2 cache is shared in one core, which actually implies a default setting "cores per L2 cache is 1" and therefore implicitly defaults to having as many L2 caches as cores. For example (i386 PC machine): -smp 16,sockets=2,dies=2,cores=2,threads=2,maxcpus=16 (*) Considering the topology of the L2 cache, this (*) implicitly means "1 core per L2 cache" and "2 L2 caches per die". If we use cluster to configure L2 cache topology with the new default setting "clusters per L2 cache is 1", the above semantics will change to "2 cores per cluster" and "1 cluster per L2 cache", that is, "2 cores per L2 cache". So the same command (*) will cause changes in the L2 cache topology, further affecting the performance of the virtual machine. Therefore, x86 should only treat cluster as a cpu topology level and avoid using it to change L2 cache by default for compatibility. ## module level in CPUID Linux kernel (from v6.4, with commit edc0a2b595765 ("x86/topology: Fix erroneous smp_num_siblings on Intel Hybrid platforms") is able to handle platforms with Module level enumerated via CPUID.1F. Expose the module level in CPUID[0x1F] (for Intel CPUs) if the machine has more than 1 modules since v3. ## New cache topology info in CPUCacheInfo Currently, by default, the cache topology is encoded as: 1. i/d cache is shared in one core. 2. L2 cache is shared in one core. 3. L3 cache is shared in one die. This default general setting has caused a misunderstanding, that is, the cache topology is completely equated with a specific cpu topology, such as the connection between L2 cache and core level, and the connection between L3 cache and die level. In fact, the settings of these topologies depend on the specific platform and are not static. For example, on Alder Lake-P, every four Atom cores share the same L2 cache [3]. Thus, in this patch set, we explicitly define the corresponding cache topology for different cpu models and this has two benefits: 1. Easy to expand to new CPU models in the future, which has different cache topology. 2. It can easily support custom cache topology by some command. # Patch description patch 1-2 Cleanups about coding style and test name. patch 3-5 Fixes about x86 topology and Intel l1 cache topology. patch 6-7 Cleanups about topology related CPUID encoding and QEMU topology variables. patch 8-9 Refactor CPUID[0x1F] encoding to prepare to introduce module level. patch 10-16 Add the module as the new CPU topology level in x86, and it is corresponding to the cluster level in generic code. patch 17,18,20 Add cache topology information in cache models. patch 19 Update AMD CPUs' cache topology encoding.
