To prevent oversubscription of L2 cache, load should be balanced between such L2 clusters, especially for tasks with no shared data. On benchmark such as SPECrate mcf test, this change provides a boost to performance especially on medium load system on Jacobsville. on a Jacobsville that has 24 Atom cores, arranged into 6 clusters of 4 cores each, the benchmark number is as follow: Improvement over baseline kernel for mcf_r copies run time base rate 1 -0.1% -0.2% 6 25.1% 25.1% 12 18.8% 19.0% 24 0.3% 0.3% So this looks pretty good. In terms of the system's task distribution, some pretty bad clumping can be seen for the vanilla kernel without the L2 cluster domain for the 6 and 12 copies case. With the extra domain for cluster, the load does get evened out between the clusters. Note this patch isn't an universal win as spreading isn't necessarily a win, particually for those workload who can benefit from packing.
