Actually, this is not totally accurate. My apology. This patch is mainly fix to
incorrect core ID in /proc/cpuinfo. I'll update the commit message accordingly
for V5.
Currently, with 6-core downcore configuration (out of normally 8), /proc/cpuinfo
is currently showing "core id" as.
NODE: 0
cpu 0 core id : 0
cpu 1 core id : 1
cpu 2 core id : 2
cpu 3 core id : 4
cpu 4 core id : 5
cpu 5 core id : 0
NODE: 1
cpu 6 core id : 2
cpu 7 core id : 3
cpu 8 core id : 4
cpu 9 core id : 0
cpu 10 core id : 1
cpu 11 core id : 2
NODE: ....
This is due to the cpu_core_id fixup in amd_get_topology() below:
/* fixup multi-node processor information */
if (nodes_per_socket > 1) {
u32 cus_per_node;
set_cpu_cap(c, X86_FEATURE_AMD_DCM);
cus_per_node = c->x86_max_cores / nodes_per_socket;
/* core id has to be in the [0 .. cores_per_node - 1] range */
c->cpu_core_id %= cus_per_node;
}
In this case, the cpu_core_id are {0, 1, 2 ,4, 5, 6, 8 , 9, 10, 12, 13, 14,
...}. Here, the x86_max_cores is 24, the node_per_socket is 4, and cus_per_node
is 6. When apply the fix up, the cpu_core_id ended up incorrect as shown above.
This logic assumes that the cpu_core_id are contiguous across the socket.
With this patch, this fixup is not needed since the c->cpu_core_id are already
between [0, 6].

Let me look into this to re-factoring for reuse here.

Well, for now, it has to be for non-family17h, which seems odd. I am planning to
clean this up as well.
