Merge tag 'extcon-fixes-for-4.6-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/chanwoo/extcon into char-misc-linus

Chanwoo writes:

Update extcon for v4.6-rc3

This patch fixes the following one issue:
- In extcon-palmas.c, the external abort happen when wake-up from suspend state
on BeagleBoard-X15 platform. So, drop the IRQF_EARLY_RESUME flag.

x86 Topology

============



This documents and clarifies the main aspects of x86 topology modelling and

representation in the kernel. Update/change when doing changes to the

respective code.



The architecture-agnostic topology definitions are in

Documentation/cputopology.txt. This file holds x86-specific

differences/specialities which must not necessarily apply to the generic

definitions. Thus, the way to read up on Linux topology on x86 is to start

with the generic one and look at this one in parallel for the x86 specifics.



Needless to say, code should use the generic functions - this file is *only*

here to *document* the inner workings of x86 topology.



Started by Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> and Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de>.



The main aim of the topology facilities is to present adequate interfaces to

code which needs to know/query/use the structure of the running system wrt

threads, cores, packages, etc.



The kernel does not care about the concept of physical sockets because a

socket has no relevance to software. It's an electromechanical component. In

the past a socket always contained a single package (see below), but with the

advent of Multi Chip Modules (MCM) a socket can hold more than one package. So

there might be still references to sockets in the code, but they are of

historical nature and should be cleaned up.



The topology of a system is described in the units of:



    - packages

    - cores

    - threads



* Package:



  Packages contain a number of cores plus shared resources, e.g. DRAM

  controller, shared caches etc.



  AMD nomenclature for package is 'Node'.



  Package-related topology information in the kernel:



  - cpuinfo_x86.x86_max_cores:



    The number of cores in a package. This information is retrieved via CPUID.



  - cpuinfo_x86.phys_proc_id:



    The physical ID of the package. This information is retrieved via CPUID

    and deduced from the APIC IDs of the cores in the package.



  - cpuinfo_x86.logical_id:



    The logical ID of the package. As we do not trust BIOSes to enumerate the

    packages in a consistent way, we introduced the concept of logical package

    ID so we can sanely calculate the number of maximum possible packages in

    the system and have the packages enumerated linearly.



  - topology_max_packages():



    The maximum possible number of packages in the system. Helpful for per

    package facilities to preallocate per package information.





* Cores:



  A core consists of 1 or more threads. It does not matter whether the threads

  are SMT- or CMT-type threads.



  AMDs nomenclature for a CMT core is "Compute Unit". The kernel always uses

  "core".



  Core-related topology information in the kernel:



  - smp_num_siblings:



    The number of threads in a core. The number of threads in a package can be

    calculated by:



	threads_per_package = cpuinfo_x86.x86_max_cores * smp_num_siblings





* Threads:



  A thread is a single scheduling unit. It's the equivalent to a logical Linux

  CPU.



  AMDs nomenclature for CMT threads is "Compute Unit Core". The kernel always

  uses "thread".



  Thread-related topology information in the kernel:



  - topology_core_cpumask():



    The cpumask contains all online threads in the package to which a thread

    belongs.



    The number of online threads is also printed in /proc/cpuinfo "siblings."



  - topology_sibling_mask():



    The cpumask contains all online threads in the core to which a thread

    belongs.



   - topology_logical_package_id():



    The logical package ID to which a thread belongs.



   - topology_physical_package_id():



    The physical package ID to which a thread belongs.



   - topology_core_id();



    The ID of the core to which a thread belongs. It is also printed in /proc/cpuinfo

    "core_id."







System topology examples



Note:



The alternative Linux CPU enumeration depends on how the BIOS enumerates the

threads. Many BIOSes enumerate all threads 0 first and then all threads 1.

That has the "advantage" that the logical Linux CPU numbers of threads 0 stay

the same whether threads are enabled or not. That's merely an implementation

detail and has no practical impact.
