      tools/power turbostat: fix x2apic debug message output file · cfce494d
      Len Brown authored
      A recently added x2apic debug message was hard-coded to stderr.
      That doesn't work with "-o outfile".

      tools/power turbostat: fix bogus summary values · 4f206a0f
      Artem Bityutskiy authored
      This patch fixes a regression introduced in
      
      commit 8cb48b32 ("tools/power turbostat: track thread ID in cpu_topology")
      
      Turbostat uses incorrect cores number ('topo.num_cores') - its value is count
      of logical CPUs, instead of count of physical cores. So it is twice as large as
      it should be on a typical Intel system. For example, on a 6 core Xeon system
      'topo.num_cores' is 12, and on a 52 core Xeon system 'topo.num_cores' is 104.
      
      And interestingly, on a 68-core Knights Landing Intel system 'topo.num_cores'
      is 272, because this system has 4 logical CPUs per core.
      
      As a result, some of the turbostat calculations are incorrect. For example,
      on idle 52-core Xeon system when all cores are ~99% in Core C6 (CPU%c6), the
      summary (very first) line shows ~48% Core C6, while it should be ~99%.
      
      This patch fixes the problem by fixing 'topo.num_cores' calculation.
      
      Was:
      
      1. Init 'thread_id' for all CPUs to -1
      2. Run 'get_thread_siblings()' which sets it to 0 or 1
      3. Increment 'topo.num_cores' when thread_id != -1 (bug!)
      
      Now:
      
      1. Init 'thread_id' for all CPUs to -1
      2. Run 'get_thread_siblings()' which sets it to 0 or 1
      3. Increment 'topo.num_cores' when thread_id is not 0
      
      I did not have a chance to test this on an AMD machine, and only tested on a
      couple of Intel Xeons (6 and 52 cores).
