[PATCH v6 3/4] arm64: topology: Support SMT control on ACPI based system

From: Yicong Yang
Date: Mon Oct 14 2024 - 22:19:31 EST


From: Yicong Yang <yangyicong@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

For ACPI we'll build the topology from PPTT and we cannot directly
get the SMT number of each core. Instead using a temporary xarray
to record the heterogeneous information (from ACPI_PPTT_ACPI_IDENTICAL)
and SMT information of the first core in its heterogeneous CPU cluster
when building the topology. Then we can know the largest SMT number
in the system.

The core's SMT control provides two interface to the users [1]:
1) enable/disable SMT by writing on/off
2) enable/disable SMT by writing thread number 1/max_thread_number

If a system have more than one SMT thread number the 2) may
not handle it well, since there're multiple thread numbers in the
system and 2) only accept 1/max_thread_number. So issue a warning
to notify the users if such system detected.
