Subject: [PATCH v4 0/2] MIPS: CPS: Optimise delay CPU calibration and cluster helper function
Date: Fri, 11 Jul 2025 11:54:19 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250711-smp_calib-v4-0-1e743b225bcc@bootlin.com> (raw)
This series allow booting faster by reusing the delay calibration
across the CPU belonging of the same cluster. While doing it we now
reuse the mips_cps_first_online_in_cluster() that we improve also.
This series enables faster booting by reusing delay calibration across
CPUs within the same cluster. During this process, we reuse the
improved mips_cps_first_online_in_cluster function.
With the introduction of this series, a configuration running 32 cores
spread across two clusters sees a significant reduction in boot time
by approximately 600 milliseconds.

Changes in v4:
- Fix build issue reported by kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com>
at https://lore.kernel.org/all/aG3AJ2XnH2JKOjzY@rli9-mobl/#t
- Add reviewed-by tags from Jiaxun
- Link to v3: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250708-smp_calib-v3-0-6dabf01a7d9f@bootlin.com
Changes in v3:
- Do not depend anymore of a Kconfig entry (suggested by Jiaxun).
- cpumask for cluster filled now later in cps_prepare_cpus().
- Patch 2 of the v2 has been removed.
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250704-smp_calib-v2-0-bade7e9c0463@bootlin.com
Changes in v2:
- Add a patch improving mips_cps_first_online_in_cluster()
- Use mips_cps_first_online_in_cluster() in calibrate_delay_is_known()
as suggested by Jiaxun
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250520-smp_calib-v1-1-cd04f0a78648@bootlin.com
