[PATCH 0/2] Wake task within the same cluster of waker if possible

by Yicong Yang

This is the follow-up work to support cluster scheduler. Previously we have added cluster level in the scheduler[1] to make tasks spread between clusters to bring more memory bandwidth and decrease cache contention. But it may hurt some workloads which are sensitive to the communication latency as they will be placed across clusters. We modified the select_idle_cpu() on the wake affine path in this series, expecting the wake affined task to be woken more likely on the same cluster with the waker. The latency will be decreased as the waker and wakee in the same cluster may benefit from the hot L3 cache tag. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210924085104.44806-1-21cnbao@gmail.com/ Hi Tim and Barry, This the modified patch of packing path of cluster scheduler and tests have been done on Kunpeng 920 2-socket 4-NUMA 128core platform, with 8 clusters on each NUMA. Patches based on 5.15-rc1.

SCMI protocol for interconnect scaling

by Georgi Djakov

Hi all, I am recently getting questions about hooking the interconnect framework to SCMI, so i am starting a discussion on this problem and see who might be interested in it. The SCMI spec contains various protocols like the "Performance domain management protocol". But none of the protocols mentioned in the current spec (3.0) seem to fit well into the concept we are using to scale interconnect bandwidth in Linux. I see that people are working in this area and there is already some support for clocks, resets etc. I am wondering what would be the right approach to support also interconnect bus scaling via SCMI. The interconnect framework is part of the linux kernel and it's goal is to manage the hardware and tune it to the most optimal power- performance profile according to the aggregated bandwidth demand between the various endpoints in the system (SoC). This is based on the requests coming from consumer drivers. As interconnects scaling does not map directly to any of the currently available protocols in the SCMI spec, i am curious whether there is work in progress on some other protocol that could support managing resources based on path endpoints (instead of a single ID). The interconnect framework doesn't populate every possible path, but it exposes endpoints to client drivers and the path lookup is dynamic, based on what the clients request. Maybe the SCMI host could also expose all possible endpoints and let the guest request a path from the host, based on those endpoints. There are already suggestions to create vendor-specific SCMI protocols for that, but i fear that we may end up with more than one protocol for the same thing, so that's why it might be best to discuss it in public and have a common solution that works for everyone. Thanks, Georgi

Hi Lorenzo / All, https://github.com/hisilicon/kernel-dev/tree/doe-spdm-v1 rebased to 5.14-rc7 https://github.com/hisilicon/qemu/tree/cxl-hacks rebased to qemu/master as of earlier today. For qemu side of things you need to be running spdm_responsder_emu --trans PCI_DOE from https://github.com/DMTF/spdm-emu first (that will act as server to qemu acting as a client). Various parameters allow you to change the algorithms advertised and the kernel code should work for all the ones CMA mandates (but nothing beyond that for now). For the cxl device the snippet of qemu commandline needed is: -device cxl-type3,bus=root_port13,memdev=cxl-mem1,lsa=cxl-mem1, id=cxl-pmem0,size=2G,spdm=true Otherwise much the same as https://people.kernel.org/jic23/ Build at least the cxl_pci driver as a module as we need to poke the certificate into the keychain before that (find the cert in spdm_emu tree). Instructions to do that with keyctl and evmctl are in the cover letter of the patch series. Hopefully I'll find some time next week to put together some proper instructions and email them in reply to the original posting.

Memory distribution between NUMA nodes on Taishan 2280 v2

by Dietmar Eggemann

Hi, We are carrying out some NUMA related test activities (some of which we discussed on this forum) on the Taishan 2280 v2 server. For those tests we need memory attached to all 4 NUMA nodes equally. That's why we added 2 extra 32GB memory modules to the existing 2. The manual says that they should be placed into slot: 000 (CPU A) 100 (CPU A) 020 (CPU B) and 120 (CPU B). BMC console as well as startup logs show that the memory modules get properly detected in these slots. But after Linux booted we don't have the expected 32 GB per NUMA node. There is node 1 & 3 with 64GB and node 0 & 2 with no memory instead. We didn't find any BIOS options which could explain this memory distribution. Do you have any hints why this is happening? Any help with this issue is highly appreciated. Thanks! -- Dietmar
