Both ACPI and DT provide the ability to describe additional layers of topology between that of individual cores and higher level constructs such as the level at which the last level cache is shared. In ACPI this can be represented in PPTT as a Processor Hierarchy Node Structure [1] that is the parent of the CPU cores and in turn has a parent Processor Hierarchy Nodes Structure representing a higher level of topology.

For example Kunpeng 920 has 6 clusters in each NUMA node, and each cluster has 4 cpus. All clusters share L3 cache data, but each cluster has local L3 tag. On the other hand, each clusters will share some internal system bus.

That means the cost to transfer ownership of a cacheline between CPUs within a cluster is lower than between CPUs in different clusters on the same die. Hence, it can make sense to tell the scheduler to use the cache affinity of the cluster to make better decision on thread migration.

This patch simply exposes this information to userspace libraries like hwloc by providing cluster_cpus and related sysfs attributes. PoC of HWLOC support at [2].

Note this patch only handle the ACPI case.

Special consideration is needed for SMT processors, where it is necessary to move 2 levels up the hierarchy from the leaf nodes (thus skipping the processor core level).

Currently the ID provided is the offset of the Processor Hierarchy Nodes Structure within PPTT. Whilst this is unique it is not terribly elegant so alternative suggestions welcome.

Note that arm64 / ACPI does not provide any means of identifying a die level in the topology but that may be unrelate to the cluster level.

The second argument of acpi_find_processor_node() expects ACPI Processor ID, not the logical cpu number. How about the following?

acpi_cpu_id = get_acpi_id_for_cpu(cpu); cpu_node = acpi_find_processor_node(table, acpi_cpu_id);
