From: Zhao Liu <zhao1.liu@xxxxxxxxx>

Linux kernel (from v6.4, with commit edc0a2b595765 ("x86/topology: Fix
erroneous smp_num_siblings on Intel Hybrid platforms") is able to
handle platforms with Module level enumerated via CPUID.1F.

Expose the module level in CPUID[0x1F] if the machine has more than 1
modules.

(Tested CPU topology in CPUID[0x1F] leaf with various die/cluster
configurations in "-smp".)

Changes since v3:
  * New patch to expose module level in 0x1F.
  * Add Tested-by tag from Yongwei.

A question:
Is the original checking necessary ?
The 0x1f exists even on cpu w/o modules/dies topology on bare metal, I tried
on EMR:

// leaf 0
0x00000000 0x00: eax=0x00000020 ebx=0x756e6547 ecx=0x6c65746e edx=0x49656e69

// leaf 0x1f
0x0000001f 0x00: eax=0x00000001 ebx=0x00000002 ecx=0x00000100 edx=0x00000004
0x0000001f 0x01: eax=0x00000007 ebx=0x00000080 ecx=0x00000201 edx=0x00000004
0x0000001f 0x02: eax=0x00000000 ebx=0x00000000 ecx=0x00000002 edx=0x00000004

// leaf 0xb
0x0000000b 0x00: eax=0x00000001 ebx=0x00000002 ecx=0x00000100 edx=0x00000004
0x0000000b 0x01: eax=0x00000007 ebx=0x00000080 ecx=0x00000201 edx=0x00000004
0x0000000b 0x02: eax=0x00000000 ebx=0x00000000 ecx=0x00000002 edx=0x00000004

The 0x1f is introduced for CascadeLake-AP with die level. And yes the
newer mahcines all have this leaf.


So here leads to different cpu behavior from bare metal, even in case
of "-cpu host".

In SDM Vol2, cpudid instruction section:

" CPUID leaf 1FH is a preferred superset to leaf 0BH. Intel
recommends using leaf 1FH when available rather than leaf
0BH and ensuring that any leaf 0BH algorithms are updated to
support leaf 1FH. "

My understanding: if 0x1f is existed (leaf 0.eax >= 0x1f)
then it should have same values in lp/core level as 0xb.

No. leaf 0x1f reports the same values in lp/core leve as leaf 0xb only when the machine supports these two levels. If the machine supports more levels, they will be different.

e.g., the data on one Alder lake:

0x0000000b 0x00: eax=0x00000001 ebx=0x00000001 ecx=0x00000100 edx=0x00000006
0x0000000b 0x01: eax=0x00000007 ebx=0x00000004 ecx=0x00000201 edx=0x00000006 0x0000000b 0x02: eax=0x00000000 ebx=0x00000000 ecx=0x00000002 edx=0x00000006

0x0000001f 0x00: eax=0x00000001 ebx=0x00000001 ecx=0x00000100 edx=0x00000006
0x0000001f 0x01: eax=0x00000003 ebx=0x00000004 ecx=0x00000201 edx=0x00000006 0x0000001f 0x02: eax=0x00000007 ebx=0x00000004 ecx=0x00000302 edx=0x00000006 0x0000001f 0x03: eax=0x00000000 ebx=0x00000000 ecx=0x00000003 edx=0x00000006


Yes, I think it's time to move to default 0x1f.

we don't need to do so until it's necessary.

The compatibility issue can be solved by a cpuid-0x1f option similar to
cpuid-0xb. I'll cook a patch after this patch series.

Thanks,
Zhao
