Nest and core imc(In-memory Collection counters) assigns a particular
cpu as the designated target for counter data collection.
During system boot, the first online cpu in a chip gets assigned as
the designated cpu for that chip(for nest-imc) and the first online cpu
in a core gets assigned as the designated cpu for that core(for core-imc).
If the designated cpu goes offline, the next online cpu from the same
chip(for nest-imc)/core(for core-imc) is assigned as the next target,
and the event context is migrated to the target cpu.
Currently, cpumask_any_but() function is used to find the target cpu.
Though this function is expected to return a `random` cpu, this always
returns the next online cpu.
If all cpus in a chip/core is offlined in a sequential manner, starting
from the first cpu, the event migration has to happen for all the cpus
which goes offline. Since the migration process involves a grace period,
the total time taken to offline all the cpus will be significantly high.
Example:
In a system which has 2 sockets, with
NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-87
NUMA node8 CPU(s): 88-175
Time taken to offline cpu 88-175:
real 2m56.099s
user 0m0.191s
sys 0m0.000s
Use cpumask_last() to choose the target cpu, when the designated cpu
goes online, so the migration will happen only when the last_cpu in the
mask goes offline. This way the time taken to offline all cpus in a
chip/core can be reduced.
With the patch,
Time taken to offline cpu 88-175:
real 0m12.207s
user 0m0.171s
sys 0m0.000s
cpumask_last() is a better way to find the target cpu, since in most of the
cases cpuhotplug is performed in an increasing order(even in ppc64_cpu).
cpumask_any_but() can still be used to check the possibility of other
online cpus from the same chip/core if the last cpu in the mask goes
offline.
