[PATCH] sched/topology: fix the issue groups don't span domain->span for NUMA diameter > 2
As long as NUMA diameter > 2, building sched_domain by sibling's child domain will definitely create a sched_domain with sched_group which will span out of the sched_domain:
+------+ +------+ +-------+ +------+ | node | 12 |node | 20 | node | 12 |node | | 0 +---------+1 +--------+ 2 +-------+3 | +------+ +------+ +-------+ +------+
domain0 node0 node1 node2 node3
domain1 node0+1 node0+1 node2+3 node2+3 + domain2 node0+1+2 | group: node0+1 | group:node2+3 <-------------------+
when node2 is added into the domain2 of node0, kernel is using the child domain of node2's domain2, which is domain1(node2+3). Node 3 is outside the span of the domain including node0+1+2.
This will make load_balance() run based on the avg_load in the sched_group spanning out of the sched_domain, and it also makes select_task_rq_fair() pick an idle CPU out of the sched_domain.
Real servers which suffer from this problem include Kunpeng920 and 8-node Sun Fire X4600-M2, at least.
Here we move to use the *child* domain of the *child* domain of node2's domain2 to build the sched_group.
+------+ +------+ +-------+ +------+ | node | 12 |node | 20 | node | 12 |node | | 0 +---------+1 +--------+ 2 +-------+3 | +------+ +------+ +-------+ +------+
domain0 node0 node1 +- node2 node3 | domain1 node0+1 node0+1 | node2+3 node2+3 | domain2 node0+1+2 | group: node0+1 | group:node2 <-------------------+
A tricky thing is that we shouldn't use the sgc of the 1st CPU of node2 for the sched_group generated by grandchild, otherwise, when this cpu becomes the balance_cpu of another sched_group of cpus other than node0, our sched_group generated by grandchild will access the same sgc with the sched_group generated by child of another CPU.
So in init_overlap_sched_group(), sgc's capacity be overwritten: build_balance_mask(sd, sg, mask); cpu = cpumask_first_and(sched_group_span(sg), mask);
sg->sgc = *per_cpu_ptr(sdd->sgc, cpu);
And WARN_ON_ONCE(!cpumask_equal(group_balance_mask(sg), mask)) will also be triggered: static void init_overlap_sched_group(struct sched_domain *sd, struct sched_group *sg) { if (atomic_inc_return(&sg->sgc->ref) == 1) cpumask_copy(group_balance_mask(sg), mask); else WARN_ON_ONCE(!cpumask_equal(group_balance_mask(sg), mask)); }
So here move to use the sgc of the 2nd cpu. For the corner case, if NUMA has only one CPU, we will still trigger this WARN_ON_ONCE. But It is really unlikely to be a real case for one NUMA to have one CPU only.

Hi Valentin,
The qemu topology is just a reflection of real kunpeng920 case, and pls also note Meelis has also tested on another real hardware "8-node Sun Fire X4600-M2" and gave the tested-by.
It might not a perfect fix, but it is the simplest way to fix for this moment and for real cases. A "perfect" fix will require major refactoring of topology.c.
I don't think hotplug is much relevant as even some cpus are unplugged and only one cpu is left in the sched_group of the sched_domain, the related domain and group are still getting right settings.
On the other hand, the corner could literally be fixed, but will get some very ugly code involved. I mean, two sched_group can result in using the same sgc: 1. the sched_group generated by grandchild with only one numa 2. the sched_group generated by child with more than one numa
Right now, I'm moving to the 2nd cpu for sched_group1, if we move to use 2nd cpu for sched_group2, then having only one cpu in one NUMA wouldn't be a problem anymore. But the code will be very ugly. So I would prefer to keep this assumption and just ignore the unreal corner case.
I am not entirely sure whether having more than one CPU per node is a sufficient condition. I'm starting to *think* it is, but I'm not entirely convinced yet - and now I need a new notebook.
Me too. Some extremely complicated topology might break the assumption. Really need a new notebook to draw this kind of complicated topology to break the assumption :-)
But it is sufficient for the existing real cases which need fixing. When someday a real case in which each numa has more than one CPU wakes up the below warning: WARN_ON_ONCE(!cpumask_equal(group_balance_mask(sg), mask)). It might be the right time to consider major refactoring of topology.c.
Thanks Barry

So you are getting a (hopefully) unique ID for this group span at this given topology level (i.e. sd->private) but as I had stated in that list of issues, this creates an sgc that isn't attached to the local group of any sched_domain, and thus won't get its capacity values updated.
This can actually be seen via the capacity values you're getting at build time:
[ 0.868907] CPU0 attaching sched-domain(s):
...
[ 0.869542] domain-2: span=0-5 level=NUMA [ 0.869559] groups: 0:{ span=0-3 cap=4002 }, 5:{ span=4-5 cap=2048 }
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
[ 0.871177] CPU4 attaching sched-domain(s):
...
[ 0.871200] groups: 4:{ span=4 cap=977 }, 5:{ span=5 cap=1001 } [ 0.871243] domain-1: span=4-7 level=NUMA [ 0.871257] groups: 4:{ span=4-5 cap=1978 }, 6:{ span=6-7 cap=1968 }
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
IMO what we want to do here is to hook this CPU0-domain-2-group5 to the sgc of CPU4-domain1-group4. I've done that in the below diff - this gives us groups with sgc's owned at lower topology levels, but this will only ever be true for non-local groups. This has the added benefit of working with single-CPU nodes. Briefly tested on your topology and the sunfire's (via QEMU), and I didn't get screamed at.
Before the fun police comes and impounds my keyboard, I'd like to point out that we could leverage this cross-level sgc referencing hack to further change the NUMA domains and pretty much get rid of overlapping groups (that's what I was fumbling with in [1]).
[1]: http://lore.kernel.org/r/jhjwnw11ak2.mognet@arm.com
That is, rather than building overlapping groups and fixing them whenever that breaks (distance > 2), we could have: - the local group being the child domain's span (as always) - all non-local NUMA groups spanning a single node each, with the right sgc cross-referencing.
Thoughts?

Hmph I'm thinking this can be broken by domain degeneration, as nothing will come fix up the ->sgc link and we'd be back to having a reference to a group that doesn't get updated...

So you are getting a (hopefully) unique ID for this group span at this given topology level (i.e. sd->private) but as I had stated in that list of issues, this creates an sgc that isn't attached to the local group of any sched_domain, and thus won't get its capacity values updated.
This can actually be seen via the capacity values you're getting at build time:

...
[ 0.869542] domain-2: span=0-5 level=NUMA [ 0.869559] groups: 0:{ span=0-3 cap=4002 }, 5:{ span=4-5 cap=2048 }

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Yes. I could see this issue. We could hack update_group_capacity to let it scan both local_group and sched_group generated by grandchild, but it seems your edit is much better.
IMO what we want to do here is to hook this CPU0-domain-2-group5 to the sgc of CPU4-domain1-group4. I've done that in the below diff - this gives us groups with sgc's owned at lower topology levels, but this will only ever be true for non-local groups. This has the added benefit of working with single-CPU nodes. Briefly tested on your topology and the sunfire's (via QEMU), and I didn't get screamed at.
Before the fun police comes and impounds my keyboard, I'd like to point out that we could leverage this cross-level sgc referencing hack to further change the NUMA domains and pretty much get rid of overlapping groups (that's what I was fumbling with in [1]).
That is, rather than building overlapping groups and fixing them whenever that breaks (distance > 2), we could have:

I guess the original purpose of overlapping groups is creating as few groups as possible. If we totally remove overlapping groups, it seems we will create much more groups? For example, while node0 begins to build sched_domain for distance 20, it will add node2, since the distance between node2 and node3 is 15, so while node2 is added, node3 is also added as node2's lower domain has covered node3. So we need two groups only for node0's sched_domain of distance level 20. +-------+ +--------+ | | 15 | | | node0+----------------+ | node1 | | | | | +----+--+ XXX--------+ | XXX | XX 20 | 15 XX | XXX | X XXX +----+----XXX +-------+ | | 15 | node3| | node2 +-----------------+ | | | +-------+ +---------+
If we remove overlapping group, we will add a group for node2, another group for node3. Then we get three groups.
I am not sure if it is always positive for performance.

Neither am I! At the same time our strategy for generating groups is pretty much flawed for anything with distance > 2, so I'd like to have a saner setup that doesn't involve fixing groups "after the fact".
I have a sort-of-working hack, I'll make this into a patch and toss it out for discussion.
