Export cpu topology info by sysfs. Items (attributes) are similar
|
||
|
to /proc/cpuinfo.
|
||
|
|
||
|
1) /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/physical_package_id:
|
||
|
represent the physical package id of cpu X;
|
||
|
2) /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/core_id:
|
||
|
represent the cpu core id to cpu X;
|
||
|
3) /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/thread_siblings:
|
||
|
represent the thread siblings to cpu X in the same core;
|
||
|
4) /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/core_siblings:
|
||
|
represent the thread siblings to cpu X in the same physical package;
|
||
|
|
||
|
To implement it in an architecture-neutral way, a new source file,
|
||
|
driver/base/topology.c, is to export the 5 attributes.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If one architecture wants to support this feature, it just needs to
|
||
|
implement 4 defines, typically in file include/asm-XXX/topology.h.
|
||
|
The 4 defines are:
|
||
|
#define topology_physical_package_id(cpu)
|
||
|
#define topology_core_id(cpu)
|
||
|
#define topology_thread_siblings(cpu)
|
||
|
#define topology_core_siblings(cpu)
|
||
|
|
||
|
The type of **_id is int.
|
||
|
The type of siblings is cpumask_t.
|
||
|
|
||
|
To be consistent on all architectures, the 4 attributes should have
|
||
|
deafult values if their values are unavailable. Below is the rule.
|
||
|
1) physical_package_id: If cpu has no physical package id, -1 is the
|
||
|
default value.
|
||
|
2) core_id: If cpu doesn't support multi-core, its core id is 0.
|
||
|
3) thread_siblings: Just include itself, if the cpu doesn't support
|
||
|
HT/multi-thread.
|
||
|
4) core_siblings: Just include itself, if the cpu doesn't support
|
||
|
multi-core and HT/Multi-thread.
|
||
|
|
||
|
So be careful when declaring the 4 defines in include/asm-XXX/topology.h.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If an attribute isn't defined on an architecture, it won't be exported.
