[RFC PATCH v3 07/13] s390/topology: Initialize sbm topology during topology_init_early()

From: K Prateek Nayak

Date: Thu Oct 01 2026 - 15:33:56 EST


When the topology mode is TOPOLOGY_MODE_HW, topology_init_early()
already parses the set of socket present on the system.

Use the socket_info to configure the sparsebitmask (sbm) properties for
the system - namely the number of sockets and maximum threads in a
socket instance.

arch_sbm_cpu_instance_id() traverses all socket instances to find
a matching CPU which is not optimal but instance ID is only checked
when the CPU is coming online. Since this is a rare event, the
inefficiency is tolerable.

Build tested with LKP's s390 randconfig with QEMU cmdline:

qemu-system-s390x \
-cpu max \
-smp 2 \
-m 2048 \
-kernel ./arch/s390/boot/vmlinux \
-append "console=ttyAMA0 earlycon ignore_loglevel log_buf_len=10M print_fatal_signals=1 LOGLEVEL=8 sched_debug" \
-nographic

Note: Since ctop needs KVM acceleration to emulate TOPOLOGY_MODE_HW, the
actual spasemask setting is only build tested at the moment.

XXX: Any way around this using cross-compile and QEMU?
