The following commit has been merged into the sched/core branch of tip: Commit-ID: b5b217346de85ed1b03fdecd5c5076b34fbb2f0b Gitweb: https://git.kernel.org/tip/b5b217346de85ed1b03fdecd5c5076b34fbb2f0b Author: Valentin Schneider <valentin.schneider@xxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Tue, 10 Nov 2020 18:43:00 Committer: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> CommitterDate: Thu, 19 Nov 2020 11:25:46 +01:00 sched/topology: Warn when NUMA diameter > 2 NUMA topologies where the shortest path between some two nodes requires three or more hops (i.e. diameter > 2) end up being misrepresented in the scheduler topology structures. This is currently detected when booting a kernel with CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG=y + sched_debug on the cmdline, although this will only yield a warning about sched_group spans not matching sched_domain spans: ERROR: groups don't span domain->span Add an explicit warning for that case, triggered regardless of CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG, and decorate it with an appropriate comment. The topology described in the comment can be booted up on QEMU by appending the following to your usual QEMU incantation: -smp cores=4 \ -numa node,cpus=0,nodeid=0 -numa node,cpus=1,nodeid=1, \ -numa node,cpus=2,nodeid=2, -numa node,cpus=3,nodeid=3, \ -numa dist,src=0,dst=1,val=20, -numa dist,src=0,dst=2,val=30, \ -numa dist,src=0,dst=3,val=40, -numa dist,src=1,dst=2,val=20, \ -numa dist,src=1,dst=3,val=30, -numa dist,src=2,dst=3,val=20 A somewhat more realistic topology (6-node mesh) with the same affliction can be conjured with: -smp cores=6 \ -numa node,cpus=0,nodeid=0 -numa node,cpus=1,nodeid=1, \ -numa node,cpus=2,nodeid=2, -numa node,cpus=3,nodeid=3, \ -numa node,cpus=4,nodeid=4, -numa node,cpus=5,nodeid=5, \ -numa dist,src=0,dst=1,val=20, -numa dist,src=0,dst=2,val=30, \ -numa dist,src=0,dst=3,val=40, -numa dist,src=0,dst=4,val=30, \ -numa dist,src=0,dst=5,val=20, \ -numa dist,src=1,dst=2,val=20, -numa dist,src=1,dst=3,val=30, \ -numa dist,src=1,dst=4,val=20, -numa dist,src=1,dst=5,val=30, \ -numa dist,src=2,dst=3,val=20, -numa dist,src=2,dst=4,val=30, \ -numa dist,src=2,dst=5,val=40, \ -numa dist,src=3,dst=4,val=20, -numa dist,src=3,dst=5,val=30, \ -numa dist,src=4,dst=5,val=20 Signed-off-by: Valentin Schneider <valentin.schneider@xxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Acked-by: Mel Gorman <mgorman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/jhjtux5edo2.mognet@xxxxxxx --- kernel/sched/topology.c | 33 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 33 insertions(+) diff --git a/kernel/sched/topology.c b/kernel/sched/topology.c index 90f3e55..b296c1c 100644 --- a/kernel/sched/topology.c +++ b/kernel/sched/topology.c @@ -675,6 +675,7 @@ cpu_attach_domain(struct sched_domain *sd, struct root_domain *rd, int cpu) { struct rq *rq = cpu_rq(cpu); struct sched_domain *tmp; + int numa_distance = 0; /* Remove the sched domains which do not contribute to scheduling. */ for (tmp = sd; tmp; ) { @@ -706,6 +707,38 @@ cpu_attach_domain(struct sched_domain *sd, struct root_domain *rd, int cpu) sd->child = NULL; } + for (tmp = sd; tmp; tmp = tmp->parent) + numa_distance += !!(tmp->flags & SD_NUMA); + + /* + * FIXME: Diameter >=3 is misrepresented. + * + * Smallest diameter=3 topology is: + * + * node 0 1 2 3 + * 0: 10 20 30 40 + * 1: 20 10 20 30 + * 2: 30 20 10 20 + * 3: 40 30 20 10 + * + * 0 --- 1 --- 2 --- 3 + * + * NUMA-3 0-3 N/A N/A 0-3 + * groups: {0-2},{1-3} {1-3},{0-2} + * + * NUMA-2 0-2 0-3 0-3 1-3 + * groups: {0-1},{1-3} {0-2},{2-3} {1-3},{0-1} {2-3},{0-2} + * + * NUMA-1 0-1 0-2 1-3 2-3 + * groups: {0},{1} {1},{2},{0} {2},{3},{1} {3},{2} + * + * NUMA-0 0 1 2 3 + * + * The NUMA-2 groups for nodes 0 and 3 are obviously buggered, as the + * group span isn't a subset of the domain span. + */ + WARN_ONCE(numa_distance > 2, "Shortest NUMA path spans too many nodes\n"); + sched_domain_debug(sd, cpu); rq_attach_root(rq, rd);
