So, the above looks good. OTOH, this is yet another manually
created/hard-coded ACPI table, subject to change every-time another SOC
is
released. I have a couple similar ones, but haven't post them because I
believe the HiSi folks have done us a favor and created a table generator
which does 90% of this work by probing the hardware, and creating a
"compressed" representation of the table. Leaving the individual
platforms
to only fill out LLCs and such which can't be probed.

It would be great if the remaining HiSi bits were removed and the whole
thing made generic enough to plug in to these individual platforms, so
that
they only need supply their nonstandard bits and the rest is taken care
of.



Yeah, I am aware of that. But to be honest, for a platform such as
this one, where the information is 100% static, I'd much rather have a
single .c file like this that never changes once you check it in.



Maybe, but even if there is never an identical machine with a few cores
extra (or removed), you have to deal with the possibility that the standard
is going to be updated (say to add a leaf node flag). If/when that happens
you now have the technical debt of having to go manually touch the tables vs
updating the generator code and being done with it across all the platforms.
Particularly since other people are just going to take the same shortcut
next time of just copy-pasting this table and tweaking it, rather than
trying to create a library out of the HiSi code.


I agree up to a point, and I think we are conflating two different
things here. I am all for abstracting PPTT table generation, but only
if it doesn't move processing of information known at compile time to
runtime.


BTW the architecture does not permit inferring cache geometry from the
CCSIDR field:

Yeah, I am aware of that. But to be honest, for a platform such as
this one, where the information is 100% static, I'd much rather have a
single .c file like this that never changes once you check it in.

Re: [edk2] [PATCH edk2-platforms] Silicon/SynQuacer: add PPTT ACPI table to describe cache topology

2018-03-08 Thread Jeremy Linton

Hi,

On 03/08/2018 07:13 AM, Ard Biesheuvel wrote:

Add a ACPI Processor Properties Topology Table (PPTT) to the SynQuacer
builds. This information is used by the OS to tune the scheduler.

This produces the following topology after applying Jeremy's patches:

So, the above looks good. OTOH, this is yet another manually 
created/hard-coded ACPI table, subject to change every-time another SOC 
is released. I have a couple similar ones, but haven't post them because 
I believe the HiSi folks have done us a favor and created a table 
generator which does 90% of this work by probing the hardware, and 
creating a "compressed" representation of the table. Leaving the 
individual platforms to only fill out LLCs and such which can't be probed.


It would be great if the remaining HiSi bits were removed and the whole 
thing made generic enough to plug in to these individual platforms, so 
that they only need supply their nonstandard bits and the rest is taken 
care of.
