All clusters share L3 cache data while each cluster has local L3 tag. On the other hand, each cluster will share some internal system bus. This means cache is much more affine inside one cluster than across clusters. +-----------------------------------+ +---------+ | +------+ +------+ +---------------------------+ | | | CPU0 | | cpu1 | | +-----------+ | | | +------+ +------+ | | | | | | +----+ L3 | | | | +------+ +------+ cluster | | tag | | | | | CPU2 | | CPU3 | | | | | | | +------+ +------+ | +-----------+ | | | | | | +-----------------------------------+ | | +-----------------------------------+ | | | +------+ +------+ +--------------------------+ | | | | | | | +-----------+ | | | +------+ +------+ | | | | | | | | L3 | | | | +------+ +------+ +----+ tag | | | | | | | | | | | | | | +------+ +------+ | +-----------+ | | | | | | +-----------------------------------+ | L3 | | data | +-----------------------------------+ | | | +------+ +------+ | +-----------+ | | | | | | | | | | | | | +------+ +------+ +----+ L3 | | | | | | tag | | | | +------+ +------+ | | | | | | | | | | ++ +-----------+ | | | +------+ +------+ |---------------------------+ | +-----------------------------------| | | +-----------------------------------| | | | +------+ +------+ +---------------------------+ | | | | | | | +-----------+ | | | +------+ +------+ | | | | | | +----+ L3 | | | | +------+ +------+ | | tag | | | | | | | | | | | | | | +------+ +------+ | +-----------+ | | | | | | +-----------------------------------+ | | +-----------------------------------+ | | | +------+ +------+ +--------------------------+ | | | | | | | +-----------+ | | | +------+ +------+ | | | | | There is a similar need for clustering in x86. Some x86 cores could share L2 caches that is similar to the cluster in Kupeng 920 (e.g. on Jacobsville there are 6 clusters of 4 Atom cores, each cluster sharing a separate L2, and 24 cores sharing L3). Having a sched_domain for clusters will bring two aspects of improvement: 1. spreading unrelated tasks among clusters, which decreases the contention of resources and improve the throughput. unrelated tasks might be put randomly without cluster sched_domain: +-------------------+ +-----------------+ | +----+ +----+ | | | | |task| |task| | | | | |1 | |2 | | | | | +----+ +----+ | | | | | | | | cluster1 | | cluster2 | +-------------------+ +-----------------+ but with cluster sched_domain, they are likely to spread due to LB: +-------------------+ +-----------------+ | +----+ | | +----+ | | |task| | | |task| | | |1 | | | |2 | | | +----+ | | +----+ | | | | | | cluster1 | | cluster2 | +-------------------+ +-----------------+ 2. gathering related tasks within a cluster, which improves the cache affinity of tasks talking with each other. Without cluster sched_domain, related tasks might be put randomly. In case task1-8 have relationship as below: Task1 wakes up task4 Task2 wakes up task5 Task3 wakes up task6 Task4 wakes up task7 With the tuning of select_idle_cpu() to scan local cluster first, those tasks might get a chance to be gathered like: +---------------------------+ +----------------------+ | +----+ +-----+ | | +----+ +-----+ | | |task| |task | | | |task| |task | | | |1 | | 4 | | | |2 | |5 | | | +----+ +-----+ | | +----+ +-----+ | | | | | | cluster1 | | cluster2 | | | | | | | | | | +-----+ +------+ | | +-----+ +------+ | | |task | | task | | | |task | |task | | | |3 | | 6 | | | |4 | |8 | | | +-----+ +------+ | | +-----+ +------+ | +---------------------------+ +----------------------+ Otherwise, the result might be: +---------------------------+ +----------------------+ | +----+ +-----+ | | +----+ +-----+ | | |task| |task | | | |task| |task | | | |1 | | 2 | | | |5 | |6 | | | +----+ +-----+ | | +----+ +-----+ | | | | | | cluster1 | | cluster2 | | | | | | | | | | +-----+ +------+ | | +-----+ +------+ | | |task | | task | | | |task | |task | | | |3 | | 4 | | | |7 | |8 | | | +-----+ +------+ | | +-----+ +------+ | +---------------------------+ +----------------------+ -v5: * split "add scheduler level for clusters" into two patches to evaluate the impact of spreading and gathering separately; * add a tracepoint of select_idle_cpu for debug purpose; add bcc script in commit log; * add cluster_id = -1 in reset_cpu_topology() * rebased to tip/sched/core -v4: * rebased to tip/sched/core with the latest unified code of select_idle_cpu * added Tim's patch for x86 Jacobsville * also added benchmark data of spreading unrelated tasks * avoided the iteration of sched_domain by moving to static_key(addressing Vincent's comment * used acpi_cpu_id for acpi_find_processor_node(addressing Masa's comment) Barry Song (2): scheduler: add scheduler level for clusters scheduler: scan idle cpu in cluster before scanning the whole llc Jonathan Cameron (1): topology: Represent clusters of CPUs within a die Tim Chen (1): scheduler: Add cluster scheduler level for x86 Documentation/admin-guide/cputopology.rst | 26 +++++++++++-- arch/arm64/Kconfig | 7 ++++ arch/arm64/kernel/topology.c | 2 + arch/x86/Kconfig | 8 ++++ arch/x86/include/asm/smp.h | 7 ++++ arch/x86/include/asm/topology.h | 1 + arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cacheinfo.c | 1 + arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c | 3 ++ arch/x86/kernel/smpboot.c | 43 ++++++++++++++++++++- drivers/acpi/pptt.c | 63 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/base/arch_topology.c | 15 ++++++++ drivers/base/topology.c | 10 +++++ include/linux/acpi.h | 5 +++ include/linux/arch_topology.h | 5 +++ include/linux/sched/cluster.h | 19 ++++++++++ include/linux/sched/topology.h | 7 ++++ include/linux/topology.h | 13 +++++++ include/trace/events/sched.h | 22 +++++++++++ kernel/sched/core.c | 20 ++++++++++ kernel/sched/fair.c | 36 +++++++++++++++++- kernel/sched/sched.h | 1 + kernel/sched/topology.c | 5 +++ 22 files changed, 313 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) create mode 100644 include/linux/sched/cluster.h -- 1.8.3.1 _______________________________________________ linux-arm-kernel mailing list linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-arm-kernel
