sched/topology: Introduce NUMA identity node sched domain
On AMD Family17h-based (EPYC) system, a logical NUMA node can contain
upto 8 cores (16 threads) with the following topology.
----------------------------
C0 | T0 T1 | || | T0 T1 | C4
--------| || |--------
C1 | T0 T1 | L3 || L3 | T0 T1 | C5
--------| || |--------
C2 | T0 T1 | #0 || #1 | T0 T1 | C6
--------| || |--------
C3 | T0 T1 | || | T0 T1 | C7
----------------------------
Here, there are 2 last-level (L3) caches per logical NUMA node.
A socket can contain upto 4 NUMA nodes, and a system can support
upto 2 sockets. With full system configuration, current scheduler
creates 4 sched domains:
domain0 SMT (span a core)
domain1 MC (span a last-level-cache)
domain2 NUMA (span a socket: 4 nodes)
domain3 NUMA (span a system: 8 nodes)
Note that there is no domain to represent cpus spaning a logical
NUMA node. With this hierarchy of sched domains, the scheduler does
not balance properly in the following cases:
Case1:
When running 8 tasks, a properly balanced system should
schedule a task per logical NUMA node. This is not the case for
the current scheduler.
Case2:
In some cases, threads are scheduled on the same cpu, while other
cpus are idle. This results in run-to-run inconsistency. For example:
taskset -c 0-7 sysbench --num-threads=8 --test=cpu \
--cpu-max-prime=100000 run
Total execution time ranges from 25.1s to 33.5s depending on threads
placement, where 25.1s is when all 8 threads are balanced properly
on 8 cpus.
Introducing NUMA identity node sched domain, which is based on how
SRAT/SLIT table define a logical NUMA node. This results in the following
hierarchy of sched domains on the same system described above.
domain0 SMT (span a core)
domain1 MC (span a last-level-cache)
domain2 NODE (span a logical NUMA node)
domain3 NUMA (span a socket: 4 nodes)
domain4 NUMA (span a system: 8 nodes)
This fixes the improper load balancing cases mentioned above.
