A cluster means a group of cores that share some resources (e.g. cache)
among them under the LLC. For example, ARM64 server chip Kunpeng 920 has
6 or 8 clusters in each NUMA, and each cluster has 4 cores. All clusters
share L3 cache data while cores within each cluster share the L2 cache.
Also, there are some x86 CPU implementations (e.g. Jacobsville) where L2
cache is shared among a cluster of cores instead of being exclusive to
one single core. For example, on Jacobsville there are 6 clusters of 4
Atom cores, each cluster sharing a separate L2, and 24 cores sharing L3).
The cache affinity of cluster has been proved to improve the Linux kernel
scheduling performance and a patchset has been posted, in which a general
sched_domain for clusters was added and a cluster level was added in the
arch-neutral cpu topology struct like below.
struct cpu_topology {
int thread_id;
int core_id;
int cluster_id;
int package_id;
int llc_id;
cpumask_t thread_sibling;
cpumask_t core_sibling;
cpumask_t cluster_sibling;
cpumask_t llc_sibling;
}
Also the Kernel Doc: Documentation/devicetree/bindings/cpu/cpu-topology.txt
defines a four-level CPU topology hierarchy like socket/cluster/core/thread.
According to the context, a socket node's child nodes must be one or more
cluster nodes and a cluster node's child nodes must be one or more cluster
nodes/one or more core nodes.
So let's add the arch-neutral -smp, clusters=* command line support, so that
future guest os could make use of cluster cpu topology for better scheduling
performance. And whichever architecture that has groups of cpus sharing some
separate resources(e.g. L2 cache) internely under LLC can use this command
line parameter to define a VM with cluster level cpu topology.
For ARM machines, a four-level cpu hierarchy can be defined and it will be
sockets/clusters/cores/threads. For PC machines, a five-level cpu hierarchy
can be defined and it will be sockets/dies/clusters/cores/threads.

Function smp_parse() in hw/core/machine.c is a generic/default function
used for parsing the -smp command line. Since the new cluster parameter
has been added in struct CpuTopology, we should parse this new parameter
in the default function.
In smp_parse(), the computing logic of missing values prefers sockets over
cores over threads. And the value of clusters will be set as default 1 if
not explictly specified, so that it will not impact the parsing results of
machines that won't specify "clusters=" in -smp command line because they
just don't support it.

Is this different from what we already have with "-smp dies"?

As far as I know, yes. I think they are two architecture concepts of
different levels.
A cpu socket/package can consist of multiple dies, and each die can
consist of
multiple clusters, which means dies are parent for clusters. And this
kind of cpu
hierarchy structure is normal in ARM64 platform.
Still take above ARM64 server chip Kunpeng 920 as an example, there
totally are
2 sockets, 2 dies in each socket, 6 or 8 clusters in each die, and 4
cores in each
cluster. Since it also supports NUMA architecture, then each NUMA actually
represents one die.
Although there is already "-smp dies=*" command line parameter for PC
Machines,
a cluster level can be added for x86 architecture if meaningful and
there will be more
work to do in qemu to make use of it. And I am sure that ARM needs this
level.
If there is something wrong above, please correct me, thanks!
Thanks,
Yanan

At a glance: tests/unit/test-x86-cpuid.c should be adapted to be generic
(but still supporting target-specific sub-tests) and some aarch64 tests
added.
Similarly the ARM PPTT tables tested in tests/qtest/bios-tables-test.c.
Otherwise, the overall series looks good and coherent, but it isn't my
area :)
Regards,
Phil.

Thank you for the reminder of the related tests. :)
I will have some work to make them cover the new features introduced
by this series.

BTW if after 4 weeks and 2 pings nobody sent negative feedback or
NAcked your series, it usually means the community is not against
your purposal, but has some doubts this feature is necessary or
well designed. Tests help to show your work is safe, as it doesn't
break anything. You might need to better explain why this feature
is needed, and what are the limitations of what is currently
possible.
OTOH QEMU has been in "feature freeze" for the next v6.0 release
for the same amount of time, so maybe the maintainers/reviewers
were busy with bugs and still have your series in their TODO list.
Regards,
Phil.

I fully understand your point, and thanks for the explanations.
I will just patiently wait for some feedback, and of course on the same
time,
will also refine the solution with some convincing tests for later new
version.
