Subject: [PATCH v2 2/4] powerpc/topology: Update mc/pkg flags based on llc_override
Date: Fri, 23 Oct 2026 18:46:44 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261023131646.2907938-3-sshegde@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261023131646.2907938-1-sshegde@linux.ibm.com>
Update the flags passed for building the scheduler topology based on
llc_override.
SD_SHARE_LLC is used to determine the highest domain where the LLC is.
Also when set at a particular domain, all the child domains are expected
to have it set as well.
