Subject: [PATCH RFC 1/2] sched: Introduce topology level masks and for_each_tlm() macro
We have for_each_cpu_mask() (and friends) macro which is used
to enumerate CPUs in a given cpumask. Such enumeration walks
CPUs in ascending order of their IDs and does not take into
account CPU topology of the system. That is, each next CPU
could belong to any level of the system topology with regard
to the previously iterated CPU.
Yet, in some cases such indiscriminate enumeration could gain
suboptimal results when for_each_cpu_mask() is used to find-
first a CPU that matches certain criteria: if the finding
process prefers a CPU to be found as close as possible to the
current one (in the same core, package, last level cache etc.)
then for_each_cpu_mask() macro alone is not enough.
To facilitate convenient topology-aware cpumask enumeration
this update introduces a concept of topology level masks - an
per-cpu array of cpumask items. Each n-th item in this array
contains CPUs on this topology level minus all CPUs on all
[0..n-1] previous levels, relatively to this CPU.
Additionally, new macro for_each_tlm() is introduced to
enumerate the described above topology level masks. As result,
a topology-aware enumeration for a arbitrary cpumask 'mask'
would look like this:
struct cpumask **tlm;
int cpu;
for_each_tlm(tlm) {
for_each_cpu_and(cpu, *tlm, mask) {
/*
* Check if 'cpu' matches criteria
*/
}
}
It is generally recommended to disable preemption when calling
for_each_tlm() macro. Although it is not guaranteed the
finding process is not migrated to another CPU upon preemption
enable, we do not want it moved in the middle of the nested
loops causing accesses to the original CPU's topology level
masks.
