I think your concern's right, qemu indeed populate a cluster in the system. I checked
and cluster_id looks like:
estuary:/$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/topology/cluster_id
56
56
56
56
56
56
56
56
I check the qemu codes that it'll always populate a cluster for aarch64's virt machine
even if user doesn't specify it through '-smp cluster=N', the range of the cluster
will be equal to package.
I tried the attached code of qemu (based on v7.1.0-rc4) and kernel (based on 6.0.0-rc1).
Then the cluster won't be built and the NUMA domains built correctly:
estuary:/$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/topology/cluster_id
-2
-2
-2
-2
-2
-2
-2
-2
Ionela replied to check the PPTT code. Maybe we should both restrict this in Qemu and kernel
side.
Thanks,
Yicong
Kernel changes below. Make sure the package node is not recognized as a cluster node.
