cpumask_local_spread() currently checks local node for presence of i'th CPU, and then if it finds nothing makes a flat search among all non-local CPUs. We can do it better by checking CPUs per NUMA hops. This series is inspired by Tariq Toukan and Valentin Schneider's "net/mlx5e: Improve remote NUMA preferences used for the IRQ affinity hints" https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/patch/20220728191203.4055-3-tariqt@xxxxxxxxxx/ According to their measurements, for mlx5e: Bottleneck in RX side is released, reached linerate (~1.8x speedup). ~30% less cpu util on TX. This patch makes cpumask_local_spread() traversing CPUs based on NUMA distance, just as well, and I expect comparable improvement for its users, as in case of mlx5e. I tested new behavior on my VM with the following NUMA configuration: root@debian:~# numactl -H available: 4 nodes (0-3) node 0 cpus: 0 1 2 3 node 0 size: 3869 MB node 0 free: 3740 MB node 1 cpus: 4 5 node 1 size: 1969 MB node 1 free: 1937 MB node 2 cpus: 6 7 node 2 size: 1967 MB node 2 free: 1873 MB node 3 cpus: 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 node 3 size: 7842 MB node 3 free: 7723 MB node distances: node 0 1 2 3 0: 10 50 30 70 1: 50 10 70 30 2: 30 70 10 50 3: 70 30 50 10 And the cpumask_local_spread() for each node and offset traversing looks like this: node 0: 0 1 2 3 6 7 4 5 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 node 1: 4 5 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 0 1 2 3 6 7 node 2: 6 7 0 1 2 3 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 4 5 node 3: 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 4 5 6 7 0 1 2 3 v1: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20221111040027.621646-5-yury.norov@xxxxxxxxx/T/ v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20221112190946.728270-3-yury.norov@xxxxxxxxx/T/ v3: - fix typo in find_nth_and_andnot_bit(); - add 5th patch that simplifies cpumask_local_spread(); - address various coding style nits.
