Commit 71e6fae3a99 fixed an issue with FORM2 affinity guests with NUMA
nodes in which the distance info is absent in
machine_state->numa_state->nodes. This happens when QEMU adds a default
NUMA node and when the user adds NUMA nodes without specifying the
distances.
During the discussions of the forementioned patch [1] it was found that
FORM1 guests were behaving in a strange way in the same scenario, with
the kernel seeing the distances between the nodes as '160', as we can
see in this example with 4 NUMA nodes without distance information:
$ numactl -H
available: 4 nodes (0-3)
(...)
node distances:
node 0 1 2 3
0: 10 160 160 160
1: 160 10 160 160
2: 160 160 10 160
3: 160 160 160 10
Turns out that we have the same problem with FORM1 guests - we are
calculating associativity domain using zeroed values. And as it also
turns out, the solution from 71e6fae3a99 applies to FORM1 as well.
This patch creates a wrapper called 'get_numa_distance' that contains
the logic used in FORM2 to define node distances when this information
is absent. This helper is then used in all places where we need to read
distance information from machine_state->numa_state->nodes. That way
we'll guarantee that the NUMA node distance is always being curated
before being used.
After this patch, the FORM1 guest mentioned above will have the
following topology:
$ numactl -H
available: 4 nodes (0-3)
(...)
node distances:
node 0 1 2 3
0: 10 20 20 20
1: 20 10 20 20
2: 20 20 10 20
3: 20 20 20 10
This is compatible with what FORM2 guests and other archs do in this
case.
