Subject: [PATCH v2 04/23] sched/cache: Make LLC id continuous
Date: Wed,  3 Dec 2025 15:07:23 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <f7026f347934cfe710650d29bb52271a6cabccd9.1764801860.git.tim.c.chen@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1764801860.git.tim.c.chen@linux.intel.com>

Introduce an index mapping between CPUs and their LLCs. This provides
a continuous per LLC index needed for cache-aware load balancing in
later patches.

The existing per_cpu llc_id usually points to the first CPU of the
LLC domain, which is sparse and unsuitable as an array index. Using
llc_id directly would waste memory.

With the new mapping, CPUs in the same LLC share a continuous id:

  per_cpu(llc_id, CPU=0...15)  = 0
  per_cpu(llc_id, CPU=16...31) = 1
  per_cpu(llc_id, CPU=32...47) = 2
  ...

Notes:
    v1->v2:
       Convert the static LLC id to be allocated sequentially as LLCs are
       discovered, and replace the old sd_llc_id. (Peter Zijlstra)
