Current sched domain creation code can't handle multi-node processors. When switching to power_savings scheduling errors show up and system might hang later on (due to broken sched domain hierarchy): # echo 0 >> /sys/devices/system/cpu/sched_mc_power_savings CPU0 attaching sched-domain: domain 0: span 0-5 level MC groups: 0 1 2 3 4 5 domain 1: span 0-23 level NODE groups: 0-5 6-11 18-23 12-17 ... # echo 1 >> /sys/devices/system/cpu/sched_mc_power_savings CPU0 attaching sched-domain: domain 0: span 0-11 level MC groups: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ERROR: parent span is not a superset of domain->span domain 1: span 0-5 level CPU ERROR: domain->groups does not contain CPU0 groups: 6-11 (__cpu_power = 12288) ERROR: groups don't span domain->span domain 2: span 0-23 level NODE groups: ERROR: domain->cpu_power not set ERROR: groups don't span domain->span ... Fixing all aspects of power-savings scheduling for Magny-Cours needs some larger changes in the sched domain creation code. As a short-term and temporary workaround avoid the problems by extending "the worst possible hack" ;-( and always use llc_shared_map on AMD Magny-Cours when MC domain span is calculated. With this I get: # echo 1 >> /sys/devices/system/cpu/sched_mc_power_savings CPU0 attaching sched-domain: domain 0: span 0-5 level MC groups: 0 1 2 3 4 5 domain 1: span 0-5 level CPU groups: 0-5 (__cpu_power = 6144) domain 2: span 0-23 level NODE groups: 0-5 (__cpu_power = 6144) 6-11 (__cpu_power = 6144) 18-23 (__cpu_power = 6144) 12-17 (__cpu_power = 6144) ... I.e. no errors during sched domain creation, no system hangs, and also mc_power_savings scheduling works to a certain extend.
