The output below is obtained from Juno. When cluster_id is populated, a new CLS level is created by the scheduler topology code. In this case the clusters in DT determine that the cluster siblings and llc siblings are the same so the MC scheduler domain will be removed and, for Juno, only CLS and DIE will be kept. root@debian-arm64-buster:/sys/kernel/debug/sched/domains/cpu1# grep . */* domain0/busy_factor:16 domain0/cache_nice_tries:1 domain0/flags:SD_BALANCE_NEWIDLE SD_BALANCE_EXEC SD_BALANCE_FORK SD_WAKE_AFFINE SD_SHARE_PKG_RESOURCES SD_PREFER_SIBLING domain0/imbalance_pct:117 domain0/max_interval:4 domain0/max_newidle_lb_cost:14907 domain0/min_interval:2 domain0/name:CLS domain1/busy_factor:16 domain1/cache_nice_tries:1 domain1/flags:SD_BALANCE_NEWIDLE SD_BALANCE_EXEC SD_BALANCE_FORK SD_WAKE_AFFINE SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY_FULL SD_PREFER_SIBLING domain1/imbalance_pct:117 domain1/max_interval:12 domain1/max_newidle_lb_cost:11858 domain1/min_interval:6 domain1/name:DIE To be noted that we also get a new flag SD_PREFER_SIBLING for the CLS level that is not appropriate. We usually remove it for the child of a SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY domain, but we don't currently redo this after some levels are degenerated. This is a fixable issue. But looking at the bigger picture, a good question is what is the best thing to do when cluster domains and llc domains span the same CPUs? Possibly it would be best to restrict clusters (which are almost an arbitrary concept) to always span a subset of CPUs of the llc domain, if llc siblings can be obtained? If those clusters are not properly set up in DT to respect this condition, cluster_siblings would need to be cleared (or set to the current CPU) so the CLS domain is not created at all. Additionally, should we use cluster information from DT (cluster_id) to create an MC level if we don't have llc information, even if CONFIG_SCHED_CLUSTER=n? I currently don't have a very clear picture of how cluster domains and llc domains would "live" together in a variety of topologies. I'll try other DT topologies to see if there are others that can lead to trouble. Thanks, Ionela.
