RE: [PATCH 03/11] x86 topology: Add CPUID.1F multi-die/package support

Hi Brice,

Yes, you re-discovered the bug that Kan Liang pointed out last week.

I have updated this patch set, and the latest for testing is in my git tree on kernel.org or

https://github.com/lenb/linux.git x86

Note that I took your advice and left the core_siblings with its original definition,
And created package_threads as a synonym.  I will e-mail out the patch set again
When I do 2 more things:

1. add core_threads map to sysfs
2. replace unique_die_id with logical_die_id -- turns out it is useful for same reason as logical_package_id.

Thanks,
-Len

Hello Len,

I am testing your patches in a VM with CPUID.1f QEMU patches (author Like Xu is CC'ed), booted to get 2 packages with 1 NUMA node each and 2 dies each:

-smp cpus=16,threads=2,cores=2,dies=2,sockets=2 -numa node,cpus=0-7,nodeid=0 -numa node,cpus=8-15,nodeid=1

sysfs files expose wrong information:
core_siblings contains threads of the local die AND of die with same number in other processors, eg cpu 0-3 and 8-11 instead of 0-3 only.

The issue is that you seem to assume that die ids will always be unique across multiple packages.
Is this a valid assumption? If so, QEMU patches should be fixed.
If not, I fixed the issue by changing match_die() to check both phys_proc_id and cpu_die_id:

static bool match_die(struct cpuinfo_x86 *c, struct cpuinfo_x86 *o) {
	if (c->phys_proc_id == o->phys_proc_id && c->cpu_die_id == o->cpu_die_id)
 		return true;
	return false;
}

Thanks
Brice
