[ Upstream commit aa02ef099c ]
nr_cpu_ids can be limited on the command line via nr_cpus=. This can break the
logical package management because it results in a smaller number of packages
while in kdump kernel.
Check below case:
There is a two sockets system, each socket has 8 cores, which has 16 logical
cpus while HT was turn on.
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 | 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23
cores on socket 0 threads on socket 0
8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 | 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31
cores on socket 1 threads on socket 1
While starting the kdump kernel with command line option nr_cpus=16 panic
was triggered on one of the cpus 24-31 eg. 26, then online cpu will be
1-15, 26(cpu 0 was disabled in kdump), ncpus will be 16 and
__max_logical_packages will be 1, but actually two packages were booted on.
This issue can reproduced by set kdump option nr_cpus=<real physical core
numbers>, and then trigger panic on last socket's thread, for example:
taskset -c 26 echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger
Use total_cpus which will not be limited by nr_cpus command line to calculate
the value of __max_logical_packages.
