[PATCH v4 0/7] sched, net: NUMA-aware CPU spreading interface

[Valentin Schneider]

Hi folks,

Tariq pointed out in [1] that drivers allocating IRQ vectors would benefit
from having smarter NUMA-awareness (cpumask_local_spread() doesn't quite cut
it).

The proposed interface involved an array of CPUs and a temporary cpumask, and
being my difficult self what I'm proposing here is an interface that doesn't
require any temporary storage other than some stack variables (at the cost of
one wild macro).

Please note that this is based on top of Yury's bitmap-for-next [2] to leverage
his fancy new FIND_NEXT_BIT() macro.

A note on treewide use of for_each_cpu_andnot()
===============================================

I've used the below coccinelle script to find places that could be patched (I
couldn't figure out the valid syntax to patch from coccinelle itself):

,-----
@tmpandnot@
expression tmpmask;
iterator for_each_cpu;
position p;
statement S;
@@
cpumask_andnot(tmpmask, ...);

...

(
for_each_cpu@p(..., tmpmask, ...)
	S
|
for_each_cpu@p(..., tmpmask, ...)
{
	...
}
)

@script:python depends on tmpandnot@
p << tmpandnot.p;
@@
coccilib.report.print_report(p[0], "andnot loop here")
'-----

Which yields (against c40e8341e3b3):

.//arch/powerpc/kernel/smp.c:1587:1-13: andnot loop here
.//arch/powerpc/kernel/smp.c:1530:1-13: andnot loop here

.//kernel/sched/core.c:366:1-13: andnot loop here
.//net/core/dev.c:3058:1-13: andnot loop here

A lot of those are actually of the shape

  for_each_cpu(cpu, mask) {
      ...
      cpumask_andnot(mask, ...);
  }

I think *some* of the powerpc ones would be a match for for_each_cpu_andnot(),
but I decided to just stick to the one obvious one in __sched_core_flip().
  
Revisions
=========

v3 -> v4
++++++++

o Rebased on top of Yury's bitmap-for-next
o Added Tariq's mlx5e patch
o Made sched_numa_hop_mask() return cpu_online_mask for the NUMA_NO_NODE &&
  hops=0 case

v2 -> v3
++++++++

o Added for_each_cpu_and() and for_each_cpu_andnot() tests (Yury)
o New patches to fix issues raised by running the above

o New patch to use for_each_cpu_andnot() in sched/core.c (Yury)

v1 -> v2
++++++++

o Split _find_next_bit() @invert into @invert1 and @invert2 (Yury)
o Rebase onto v6.0-rc1

Cheers,
Valentin
