[PATCH] powerpc/smp: Dynamically build powerpc topology
From: Srikar Dronamraju
Date: Wed Aug 30 2023 - 14:36:28 EST
Currently there are four powerpc specific sched topologies. These are
all statically defined. However not all these topologies are used by
all powerpc systems.
To avoid unnecessary degenerations by the scheduler , masks and flags
are compared. However if the sched topologies are build dynamically then
the code is simpler and there are greater chances of avoiding
degenerations.
Even x86 builds its sched topologies dynamically and new changes are
very similar to the way x86 is building its topologies.
