There isn't a simple hardware enumeration to indicate to software that a system is running with Sub-NUMA Clustering enabled. Compare the number of NUMA nodes with the number of L3 caches to calculate the number of Sub-NUMA nodes per L3 cache. When Sub-NUMA clustering mode is enabled in BIOS setup, the RMID counters are distributed equally between the SNC nodes within each socket. E.g. if there are 400 RMID counters, and the system is configured with two SNC nodes per socket, then RMID counter 0..199 are used on SNC node 0 on the socket, and RMID counter 200..399 on SNC node 1. A model specific MSR (0xca0) can change the configuration of the RMIDs when SNC mode is enabled. The MSR controls the interpretation of the RMID field in the IA32_PQR_ASSOC MSR so that the appropriate hardware counters within the SNC node are updated. If reconfigured from default, RMIDs are divided evenly across clusters. . Also initialize a per-cpu RMID offset value. Use this to calculate the value to write to the IA32_QM_EVTSEL MSR when reading RMID event values. N.B. this works well for well-behaved NUMA applications that access memory predominantly from the local memory node. For applications that access memory across multiple nodes it may be necessary for the user to read counters for all SNC nodes on a socket and add the values to get the actual LLC occupancy or memory bandwidth. Perhaps this isn't all that different from applications that span across multiple sockets in a legacy system.
