x86, cpu: Fix cache topology for early P4-SMT

2a226155 · Peter Zijlstra <[email protected]> · 2014-07-22 15:35:14 +02:00

P4 systems with cpuid level < 4 can have SMT, but the cache topology
description available (cpuid2) does not include SMP information.

Now we know that SMT shares all cache levels, and therefore we can
mark all available cache levels as shared.

We do this by setting cpu_llc_id to ->phys_proc_id, since that's
the same for each SMT thread. We can do this unconditional since if
there's no SMT its still true, the one CPU shares cache with only
itself.

This fixes a problem where such CPUs report an incorrect LLC CPU mask.

This in turn fixes a crash in the scheduler where the topology was
build wrong, it assumes the LLC mask to include at least the SMT CPUs.
