In theory we could just create a new 5_1 class option flag to avoid the changes to cascade to 5.1 and under. The reality is that these changes are only relevant if the machine has more than one NUMA node. There is no need to change guest behavior that has been around for years needlesly. This new helper will be used by the next patches to determine whether we should retain the (soon to be) legacy NUMA behavior in the pSeries machine. The new behavior will only be exposed if: - machine is pseries-5.2 and newer; - more than one NUMA node is declared in NUMA state.

For ACPI architectures like x86, this means that user input is used to populate the SLIT table, and the guest perceives the distances as the user chooses to. PPC64 does not work that way. In the PAPR concept of NUMA, associativity relations between the NUMA nodes are provided by the device tree, and the guest kernel is free to calculate the distances as it sees fit. Given how ACPI architectures works, this puts the pSeries machine in a strange spot - users expect to define NUMA distances like in the ACPI case, but QEMU does not have control over it. To give pSeries users a similar experience, we'll need to bring kernel specifics to QEMU to approximate the NUMA distances. The pSeries kernel works with the NUMA distance range 10, 20, 40, 80 and 160. The code starts at 10 (local distance) and searches for a match in the first NUMA level between the resources. If there is no match, the distance is doubled and then it proceeds to try to match in the next NUMA level. Rinse and repeat for MAX_DISTANCE_REF_POINTS levels. This patch introduces a spapr_numa_PAPRify_distances() helper that translates the user distances to kernel distance, which we're going to use to determine the associativity domains for the NUMA nodes.

The previous settings of both reference-points and maxdomains were too restrictive, but enough for the existing associativity we're setting in the resources. We'll change that in the following patches, populating the associativity arrays based on user input. For those changes to be effective, reference-points and maxdomains must be more flexible. After this patch, we'll have 4 distinct levels of NUMA (0x4, 0x3, 0x2, 0x1) and maxdomains will allow for any type of configuration the user intends to do - under the scope and limitations of PAPR itself, of course.

We have one more kernel restriction to handle in this patch: the associativity array of node 0 must be filled with zeroes [1]. The strategy below ensures that this will happen. spapr_numa_define_associativity_domains() will read the distance (already PAPRified) between the nodes from numa_state and determine the appropriate NUMA level. The NUMA domains, processed in ascending order, are going to be matched via NUMA levels, and the lowest associativity domain value is assigned to that specific level for both. This will create an heuristic where the associativities of the first nodes have higher priority and are re-used in new matches, instead of overwriting them with a new associativity match. This is necessary because neither QEMU, nor the pSeries kernel, supports multiple associativity domains for each resource, meaning that we have to decide which associativity relation is relevant. Ultimately, all of this results in a best effort approximation for the actual NUMA distances the user input in the command line. Given the nature of how PAPR itself interprets NUMA distances versus the expectations risen by how ACPI SLIT works, there might be better algorithms but, in the end, it'll also result in another way to approximate what the user really wanted. To keep this commit message no longer than it already is, the next patch will update the existing documentation in ppc-spapr-numa.rst with more in depth details and design considerations/drawbacks.

We'll have to represent the +NUMA topology using one associativity per resource, which means that choices +and compromises are going to be made. + +Consider the following NUMA topology entered by user input: + +:: + + 0 1 2 3 + 0 10 20 20 40 + 1 20 10 80 40 + 2 20 80 10 20 + 3 40 40 20 10 + +Honoring just the relative distances of node 0 to every other node, one possible +value for all associativity arrays would be: + +* node 0: 0 B A 0 +* node 1: 0 0 A 1 +* node 2: 0 0 A 2 +* node 3: 0 B 0 3 + +With the reference points {0x4, 0x3, 0x2, 0x1}, for node 0: + +* distance from 0 to 1 is 20 (no match at 0x4, will match at 0x3) +* distance from 0 to 2 is 20 (no match at 0x4, will match at 0x3) +* distance from 0 to 3 is 40 (no match at 0x4 and 0x3, will match + at 0x2) + +The distances related to node 0 are well represented. Doing for node 1, and keeping +in mind that we don't need to revisit node 0 again, the distance from node 1 to +2 is 80, matching at 0x4: + +* node 1: C 0 A 1 +* node 2: C 0 A 2 + +Over here we already have the first conflict. Even if we assign a new associativity +domain at 0x4 for 1 and 2, and we do that in the code, the kernel will define +the distance between 1 and 2 as 20, not 80, because both 1 and 2 have the "A" +associativity domain from the previous step. If we decide to discard the +associativity with "A" then the node 0 distances are compromised. + +Following up with the distance from 1 to 3 being 40 (a match in 0x2) we have another +decision to make. These are the current associativity domains of each: + +* node 1: C 0 A 1 +* node 3: 0 B 0 3 + +There is already an associativity domain at 0x2 in node 3, "B", which was assigned +by the node 0 distances. If we define a new associativity domain at this level +for 1 and 3 we will overwrite the existing associativity between 0 and 3. What +the code is doing in this case is to assign the existing domain to the +current associativity, in this case, "B" is now assigned to the 0x2 of node 1, +resulting in the following associativity arrays: + +* node 0: 0 B A 0 +* node 1: C 0 A 1 +* node 2: C B A 2 +* node 3: 0 B 0 3 + +In the last step we will analyze just nodes 2 and 3. The desired distance between +2 and 3 is 20, i.e. a match in 0x3. Node 2 already has a domain assigned in 0x3, +A, so we do the same as we did in the previous case and assign it to node 3 +at 0x3. This is the end result for the associativity arrays: + +* node 0: 0 B A 0 +* node 1: C 0 A 1 +* node 2: C B A 2 +* node 3: 0 B A 3 + +The kernel will read these arrays and will calculate the following NUMA topology for +the guest: + +:: + + 0 1 2 3 + 0 10 20 20 20 + 1 20 10 20 20 + 2 20 20 10 20 + 3 20 20 20 10 + +Which is not what the user wanted, but it is what the current logic and implementation +constraints of the kernel and QEMU will provide inside the LOPAPR specification. + +Changing a single value, specially a low distance value, makes for drastic changes +in the result. For example, with the same user input from above, but changing the +node distance from 0 to 1 to 40: + +:: + + 0 1 2 3 + 0 10 40 20 40 + 1 40 10 80 40 + 2 20 80 10 20 + 3 40 40 20 10 + +This is the result inside the guest, applying the same heuristics: + +:: + + $ numactl -H + available: 4 nodes (0-3) + (...) + node distances: + node 0 1 2 3 + 0: 10 40 20 20 + 1: 40 10 80 40 + 2: 20 80 10 20 + 3: 20 40 20 10 + +This result is much closer to the user input and only a single distance was changed +from the original. + +The kernel will always match with the shortest associativity domain possible, and we're +attempting to retain the previous established relations between the nodes. This means +that a distance equal to 20 between nodes A and B and the same distance 20 between nodes +A and F will cause the distance between B and F to also be 20. The same will happen to +other distances, but shorter distances has precedent over it to the distance calculation. + +Users are welcome to use this knowledge and experiment with the input to get the +NUMA topology they want, or as closer as they want. The important thing is to keep +expectations up to par with what we are capable of provide at this moment: an +approximation.
