Subject: [PATCH V2] powerpc/kernel: Add 'ibm,thread-groups' property for CPU allocation
Date: Mon, 8 Jan 2018 11:19:34 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <aeffc542-db28-7d1f-3263-52919b2d07c2@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)

Add code to parse the new property 'ibm,thread-groups" when it is
present.  The content of this property explicitly defines the number
of threads per core as well as the PowerPC 'threads_core_mask'.
The design provides a common device-tree for both P9 normal core and
P9 fused core systems.  The new property has been observed to be
available on P9 pHyp systems, but it is not always present on
OpenPower BMC systems.

The property updates the kernel to know which CPUs/threads of each
core are actually present, and then use the map when adding cores
to the system at boot, or during hotplug operations.

* Previously, the information about the number of threads per core
  was inferred solely from the "ibm,ppc-interrupt-server#s" property
  in the system device tree.
* Also previous to this property, The mask of threads per CPU was
  inferred to be a strict linear series from 0..(nthreads-1).
* After reading the "ibm,thread-group" property, we can determine
  the number of threads per core to be the 'bitmask weight' of the
  CPU thread mask.
* Also after reading the property, we can determine which of the
  possible threads we are allowed to online for each CPU.  It is no
  longer a simple linear sequence, but may be discontinuous e.g.
  activate threads 1,2,3,5,6,7 on a core instead of 0-5 sequentially.

Implementation of the "ibm,thread-groups" property is spread across
a few files in the powerpc specific code:

* prom.c: Parse the property and create 'ppc_thread_group_mask'.
          Use the mask in operation of early_init_dt_scan_cpus().
* setup-common.c: Import 'ppc_thread_group_mask' and use the value
          in the operation of cpu_init_thread_core_maps(), and
          smp_setup_cpu_maps.
* hotplug-cpu.c: Use 'ppc_thread_group_mask' in several locations
          where the code previously expected to iterate over a
          linear series of active threads (0..nthreads-1).

Note that the "ibm,thread-groups" property also includes semantics
of 'thread-group' i.e. define one or more subgroups of the available
threads, each group of threads to be used for a specific class of
task.  Translating thread group semantics into Linux kernel features
is TBD.

---
Changes in V2:
  -- Add more information and examples to the patch description.
  -- Rename 'pseries_thread_group_mask' to 'ppc_thread_group_mask'
  -- Remove unnecessary debug message complaining about absence of
     property.
  -- Reduce indent complexity of early_init_dt_scan_cpus().
