Documentation: Update cputopology.txt

2015-05-27T13:22:15+00:00

The documentation on cpu topology seems to be a bit out-of-date.
It doesn't mention the **_siblings_list attributes and uses old
names for topology_**_cpumask() macros.

Add information on missing attributes plus some additional
clarifications.

sched/topology: Rename topology_thread_cpumask() to topology_sibling_cpumask()

2015-05-27T13:22:15+00:00

Rename topology_thread_cpumask() to topology_sibling_cpumask()
for more consistency with scheduler code.

topology/sysfs: Provide book id and siblings attributes

2010-09-09T18:41:25+00:00

Create attributes:

 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/book_id
 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/book_siblings

which show the book id and the book siblings of a cpu.

Unlike the attributes for SMT and MC these attributes are only present if
CONFIG_SCHED_BOOK is set. There is no reason to pollute sysfs for every
architecture with unused attributes.

Documentation: ABI: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/ topology files

2009-10-30T21:59:52+00:00

Add brief descriptions for the following sysfs files:

	/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/topology/core_id
	/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/topology/core_siblings
	/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/topology/core_siblings_list
	/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/topology/physical_package_id
	/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/topology/thread_siblings
	/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/topology/thread_siblings_list

The descriptions in Documentation/cputopology.txt weren't very
informative, so I attempted a better description based on code
reading and hopeful guessing.

Updated Documentation/cputopology.txt with the better descriptions and
fixed some style issues.

cpumask: Use topology_core_cpumask()/topology_thread_cpumask()

2009-01-11T18:12:49+00:00

Impact: reduce stack usage, use new cpumask API.

This actually uses topology_core_cpumask() and
topology_thread_cpumask(), removing the only users of
topology_core_siblings() and topology_thread_siblings()

cpu topology: always define CPU topology information

2008-06-13T08:09:46+00:00

This can result in an empty topology directory in sysfs, and requires
in-kernel users to protect all uses with #ifdef - see
.

The documentation of CPU topology specifies what the defaults should be if
only partial information is available from the hardware.  So we can
provide these defaults as a fallback.

This patch:

- Adds default definitions of the 4 topology macros to 
- Changes drivers/base/topology.c to use the topology macros unconditionally
  and to cope with definitions that aren't lvalues
- Updates documentation accordingly
