Changes v2: - Removed patches 2 and 3 since now this part will be supported by the kernel. Sub-Numa Clustering (SNC) allows splitting CPU cores, caches and memory into multiple NUMA nodes. When enabled, NUMA-aware applications can achieve better performance on bigger server platforms. SNC support in the kernel is currently in review [1]. With SNC enabled and kernel support in place all the tests will function normally. There might be a problem when SNC is enabled but the system is still using an older kernel version without SNC support. Currently the only message displayed in that situation is a guess that SNC might be enabled and is causing issues. That message also is displayed whenever the test fails on an Intel platform. Add a mechanism to discover kernel support for SNC which will add more meaning and certainty to the error message. Series was tested on Ice Lake server platforms with SNC disabled, SNC-2 and SNC-4. The tests were also ran with and without kernel support for SNC. Series applies cleanly on kselftest/next.
