[3/4,V2,net-next] net: mana: add a function to spread IRQs per CPUs
Commit Message
From: Yury Norov <yury.norov@gmail.com>
Souradeep investigated that the driver performs faster if IRQs are
spread on CPUs with the following heuristics:
1. No more than one IRQ per CPU, if possible;
2. NUMA locality is the second priority;
3. Sibling dislocality is the last priority.
Let's consider this topology:
Node 0 1
Core 0 1 2 3
CPU 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
The most performant IRQ distribution based on the above topology
and heuristics may look like this:
IRQ Nodes Cores CPUs
0 1 0 0-1
1 1 1 2-3
2 1 0 0-1
3 1 1 2-3
4 2 2 4-5
5 2 3 6-7
6 2 2 4-5
7 2 3 6-7
The irq_setup() routine introduced in this patch leverages the
for_each_numa_hop_mask() iterator and assigns IRQs to sibling groups
as described above.
According to [1], for NUMA-aware but sibling-ignorant IRQ distribution
based on cpumask_local_spread() performance test results look like this:
/ntttcp -r -m 16

For NUMA- and sibling-aware IRQ distribution, the same test works
15% faster:
