Subject: [PATCH] x86: Use 64MB as nt-store threshold if no cacheinfo [BZ
#30429]
Content-type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
If `non_temporal_threshold` is below `minimum_non_temporal_threshold`,
it almost certainly means we failed to read the systems cache info.
In this case, rather than defaulting the minimum correct value, we
should default to a value that gets at least reasonable
performance. 64MB is chosen conservatively to be at the very high
end. This should never cause non-temporal stores when, if we had read
cache info, we wouldn't have otherwise.

Subject: [PATCH] x86: Increase `non_temporal_threshold` to roughly `sizeof_L3
/ 4`
Content-type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Current `non_temporal_threshold` set to roughly '3/4 * sizeof_L3 /
ncores_per_socket'. This patch updates that value to roughly
'sizeof_L3 / 4`
The original value (specifically dividing the `ncores_per_socket`) was
done to limit the amount of other threads' data a `memcpy`/`memset`
could evict.
Dividing by 'ncores_per_socket', however leads to exceedingly low
non-temporal thresholds and leads to using non-temporal stores in
cases where REP MOVSB is multiple times faster.
Furthermore, non-temporal stores are written directly to main memory
so using it at a size much smaller than L3 can place soon to be
accessed data much further away than it otherwise could be. As well,
modern machines are able to detect streaming patterns (especially if
REP MOVSB is used) and provide LRU hints to the memory subsystem. This
in affect caps the total amount of eviction at 1/cache_associativity,
far below meaningfully thrashing the entire cache.
As best I can tell, the benchmarks that lead this small threshold
where done comparing non-temporal stores versus standard cacheable
stores. A better comparison (linked below) is to be REP MOVSB which,
on the measure systems, is nearly 2x faster than non-temporal stores
at the low-end of the previous threshold, and within 10% for over
100MB copies (well past even the current threshold). In cases with a
low number of threads competing for bandwidth, REP MOVSB is ~2x faster
up to `sizeof_L3`.
The divisor of `4` is a somewhat arbitrary value. From benchmarks it
seems Skylake and Icelake both prefer a divisor of `2`, but older CPUs
such as Broadwell prefer something closer to `8`. This patch is meant
to be followed up by another one to make the divisor cpu-specific, but
in the meantime (and for easier backporting), this patch settles on
`4` as a middle-ground.
Benchmarks comparing non-temporal stores, REP MOVSB, and cacheable
stores where done using:

Subject: [PATCH] x86: Refactor Intel `init_cpu_features`
Content-type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
This patch should have no affect on existing functionality.
The current code, which has a single switch for model detection and
setting prefered features, is difficult to follow/extend. The cases
use magic numbers and many microarchitectures are missing. This makes
it difficult to reason about what is implemented so far and/or
how/where to add support for new features.
This patch splits the model detection and preference setting stages so
that CPU preferences can be set based on a complete list of available
microarchitectures, rather than based on model magic numbers.

Subject: [PATCH] x86: Make the divisor in setting `non_temporal_threshold` cpu
specific
Content-type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Different systems prefer a different divisors.
From benchmarks[1] so far the following divisors have been found:
ICX : 2
SKX : 2
BWD : 8
For Intel, we are generalizing that BWD and older prefers 8 as a
divisor, and SKL and newer prefers 2. This number can be further tuned
as benchmarks are run.

commit af992e7abdc9049714da76cae1e5e18bc4838fb8
Author: Noah Goldstein <goldstein.w.n@gmail.com>
Date: Wed Jun 7 13:18:01 2023 -0500
x86: Increase `non_temporal_threshold` to roughly `sizeof_L3 / 4`
```
Split `shared` (cumulative cache size) from `shared_per_thread` (cache
size per socket), the `shared_per_thread` *can* be slightly off from
the previous calculation.
Previously we added `core` even if `threads_l2` was invalid, and only
used `threads_l2` to divide `core` if it was present. The changed
version only included `core` if `threads_l2` was valid.
This change restores the old behavior if `threads_l2` is invalid by
adding the entire value of `core`.

Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH v1] x86: Use `3/4*sizeof(per-thread-L3)` as low bound
for NT threshold.
Content-type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
On some machines we end up with incomplete cache information. This can
make the new calculation of `sizeof(total-L3)/custom-divisor` end up
lower than intended (and lower than the prior value). So reintroduce
the old bound as a lower bound to avoid potentially regressing code
where we don't have complete information to make the decision.
