Subject: [RFT PATCH v1 0/4] Unify CPU topology across ARM64 & RISC-V
Date: Thu, 29 Nov 2018 15:28:16 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1543534100-3654-1-git-send-email-atish.patra@wdc.com> (raw)
The cpu-map DT entry in ARM64 can describe the CPU topology in
much better way compared to other existing approaches. RISC-V can
easily adopt this binding to represent it's own CPU topology.
Thus, both cpu-map DT binding and topology parsing code can be
moved to a common location so that RISC-V or any other
architecture can leverage that.
The relevant discussion regarding unifying cpu topology can be
found in [1].
arch_topology seems to be a perfect place to move the common
code. I have not introduced any functional changes in the moved
code. The only downside in this approach is that the capacity
code will be executed for RISC-V as well. But, it will exit
immediately after not able to find the appropriate DT node. If
the overhead is considered too much, we can always compile out
capacity related functions under a different config for the
architectures that do not support them.
The patches have been tested for RISC-V and compile tested for
ARM64 & x86.
The socket change[2] is also now part of this series.

QEMU changes for RISC-V topology are available at
https://github.com/atishp04/riscv-qemu/tree/cpu_topo
Apologies for the previous patch series with incorrect title and
was sent only to kernel mailing list due to a bug in my config.
Please ignore that.
