[PATCH V2 2/3] genirq/affinity: Spread vectors on node according to nr_cpu ratio

From: Ming Lei
Date: Mon Aug 12 2019 - 05:57:32 EST


Now __irq_build_affinity_masks() spreads vectors evenly per node, and
all vectors may not be spread in case that each numa node has different
CPU number, then the following warning in irq_build_affinity_masks() can
be triggered:

if (nr_present < numvecs)
WARN_ON(nr_present + nr_others < numvecs);

Improve current spreading algorithm by assigning vectors according to
the ratio of node's nr_cpu to nr_remaining_cpus, meantime running the
assignment from smaller nodes to bigger nodes to guarantee that every
active node gets allocated at least one vector, then we can avoid
cross-node spread.

Meantime the reported warning can be fixed.

Another big goodness is that the spread approach becomes more fair if
node has different CPU number.

For example, on the following machine:
[root@ktest-01 ~]# lscpu
...
CPU(s): 16
On-line CPU(s) list: 0-15
Thread(s) per core: 1
Core(s) per socket: 8
Socket(s): 2
NUMA node(s): 2
...
NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0,1,3,5-9,11,13-15
NUMA node1 CPU(s): 2,4,10,12

When driver requests to allocate 8 vectors, the following spread can
be got:
irq 31, cpu list 2,4
irq 32, cpu list 10,12
irq 33, cpu list 0-1
irq 34, cpu list 3,5
irq 35, cpu list 6-7
irq 36, cpu list 8-9
irq 37, cpu list 11,13
irq 38, cpu list 14-15

Without this patch, kernel warning is triggered on above situation, and
allocation result was supposed to be 4 vectors for each node.
