From: Jesse Larrew <jlar...@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
The SPLPAR option allows the platform to dispatch virtual processors on
physical processors that, due to the variable nature of work loads, are
temporarily free, thus improving the utilization of computing resources.
However, SPLPAR implies inconsistent mapping of virtual to physical
processors, thus defeating resource allocation software that attempts to
optimize performance on platforms that implement the NUMA option.
To bridge the gap between these two options, the VPHN option maintain a
substantially consistent mapping of a given virtual processor to a physical
processor or set of processors within a given associativity domain. When
allocating computing resources, the kernel can take advantage of this
statistically consistent mapping to improve processing performance.
VPHN mappings are substantially consistent but not static. For any given
dispatch cycle, a best effort is made by the hypervisor to dispatch the
virtual processor on a physical processor within a targeted associativity
domain (the virtual processor's home node). However, if processing capacity
within the home node is not available, some other physical processor is
assigned to meet the processing capacity entitlement. From time to time,
to optimize the total platform performance, it may be necessary for the
platform to change the home node of a given virtual processor.
The Virtual Processor Home Node feature addresses this by adding the
H_HOME_NODE_ASSOCIATIVITY hcall to retrieve the current associativity
domain information directly from the hypervisor for a given virtual
processor's home node. It also exposes a set of associativity change
counters in the Virtual Processor Area (VPA) of each processor to indicate
when associativity changes occur.
This patch sets a timer during boot that will periodically poll the
associativity change counters. When a change in associativity is detected,
it retrieves the new associativity domain information via the
H_HOME_NODE_ASSOCIATIVITY hcall and updates the NUMA node maps and sysfs
entries accordingly. The polling mechanism is also tied into the
ibm,suspend-me rtas call to stop/restart polling before/after a suspend,
hibernate, migrate, or checkpoint restart operation.
