Hi,
There are 128 cpus and 16 irqs for SAS controller in my system, and
there are 4 Nodes, every 32 cpus are for one node (cpu0-31 for node0,
cpu32-63 for node1, cpu64-95 for node2, cpu96-127 for node3).
We use function pci_alloc_irq_vectors_affinity() to set the affinity of
irqs.
I find that before the patch (Fixes: b1a5a73e64e9 ("genirq/affinity:
Spread vectors on node according to nr_cpu ratio")), the relationship
between irqs and cpus is: irq0 bind to cpu0-7, irq1 bind to cpu8-15,
irq2 bind to cpu16-23, irq3 bind to cpu24-31,irq4 bind to cpu32-39...
irq15 bind to cpu120-127. But after the patch, the relationship is
changed: irq0 bind to cpu32-39,
irq1 bind to cpu40-47, ..., irq11 bind to cpu120-127, irq12 bind to
cpu0-7, irq13 bind to cpu8-15, irq14 bind to cpu16-23, irq15 bind to
cpu24-31.
I notice that before calling the sort() in function
alloc_nodes_vectors(), the id of array node_vectors[] is from 0,1,2,3.
But after function sort(), the index of array node_vectors[] is 1,2,3,0.
But i think it sorts according to the numbers of cpus in those nodes, so
it should be the same as before calling sort() as the numbers of cpus in
every node are 32.
Is it a bug of sort() or the usage of sort()?
Thanks,
Shawn
