The MPIDR guidelines in the ARM ARM do not provide strict enforcement of MPIDR layout, only recommendations that, if followed, split the MPIDR on ARM 32 bit platforms in three affinity levels. In multi-cluster systems like big.LITTLE, if the affinity guidelines are followed, the MPIDR can not be considered an index anymore. This means that the association between logical CPU in the kernel and the HW CPU identifier becomes somewhat more complicated requiring methods like hashing to associate a given MPIDR to a CPU logical index, in order for the look-up to be carried out in an efficient and scalable way. This patch provides a function in the kernel that starting from the cpu_logical_map, implement collision-free hashing of MPIDR values by checking all significative bits of MPIDR affinity level bitfields. The hashing can then be carried out through bits shifting and ORing; the resulting hash algorithm is a collision-free though not minimal hash that can be executed with few assembly instructions. The mpidr is filtered through a mpidr mask that is built by checking all bits that toggle in the set of MPIDRs corresponding to possible CPUs. Bits that do not toggle do not carry information so they do not contribute to the resulting hash. Pseudo code: /* check all bits that toggle, so they are required */ for (i = 1, mpidr_mask = 0; i < num_possible_cpus(); i++) mpidr_mask |= (cpu_logical_map(i) ^ cpu_logical_map(0)); /* * Build shifts to be applied to aff0, aff1, aff2 values to hash the mpidr * fls() returns the last bit set in a word, 0 if none * ffs() returns the first bit set in a word, 0 if none */ fs0 = mpidr_mask[7:0] ? ffs(mpidr_mask[7:0]) - 1 : 0; fs1 = mpidr_mask[15:8] ? ffs(mpidr_mask[15:8]) - 1 : 0; fs2 = mpidr_mask[23:16] ? ffs(mpidr_mask[23:16]) - 1 : 0; ls0 = fls(mpidr_mask[7:0]); ls1 = fls(mpidr_mask[15:8]); ls2 = fls(mpidr_mask[23:16]); bits0 = ls0 - fs0; bits1 = ls1 - fs1; bits2 = ls2 - fs2; aff0_shift = fs0; aff1_shift = 8 + fs1 - bits0; aff2_shift = 16 + fs2 - (bits0 + bits1); u32 hash(u32 mpidr) { u32 l0, l1, l2; u32 mpidr_masked = mpidr & mpidr_mask; l0 = mpidr_masked & 0xff; l1 = mpidr_masked & 0xff00; l2 = mpidr_masked & 0xff0000; return (l0 >> aff0_shift | l1 >> aff1_shift | l2 >> aff2_shift); } The hashing algorithm relies on the inherent properties set in the ARM ARM recommendations for the MPIDR. Exotic configurations, where for instance the MPIDR values at a given affinity level have large holes, can end up requiring big hash tables since the compression of values that can be achieved through shifting is somewhat crippled when holes are present. Kernel warns if the number of buckets of the resulting hash table exceeds the number of possible CPUs by a factor of 4, which is a symptom of a very sparse HW MPIDR configuration. The hash algorithm is quite simple and can easily be implemented in assembly code, to be used in code paths where the kernel virtual address space is not set-up (ie cpu_resume) and instruction and data fetches are strongly ordered so code must be compact and must carry out few data accesses.
