> The SMT siblings value returned by CPUID.1F SMT level EBX differs among CPUs on
> Intel Hybrid platforms like AlderLake and MeteorLake.
> It returns 2 for Pcore CPUs which have SMT siblings and returns 1 for Ecore CPUs
> which do not have SMT siblings.
>
> Today, the CPU boot code sets the global variable smp_num_siblings when every
> CPU thread is brought up. The last thread to boot will overwrite it with the number
> of siblings of *that* thread. That last thread to boot will "win". If the thread is a
> Pcore, smp_num_siblings == 2. If it is an Ecore, smp_num_siblings == 1.
>
> smp_num_siblings describes if the *system* supports SMT. It should specify the
> maximum number of SMT threads among all cores.
>
> Ensure that smp_num_siblings represents the system-wide maximum number of
> siblings by always increasing its value. Never allow it to decrease.
>
> On MeteorLake-P platform, this fixes a problem that the Ecore CPUs are not updated
> in any cpu sibling map because the system is treated as an UP system when probing
> Ecore CPUs.
>
> Below shows part of the CPU topology information before and after the fix, for both
> Pcore and Ecore CPU (cpu0 is Pcore, cpu 12 is Ecore).
Tested-By: Jani Saarinen <jani.saarinen at intel.com> on local MTL setup. Also tested earlier on other CI systems
by: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/115601/ trybot series.
For this there is https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/intel/-/issues/8317
