Wow, that topology is horrid. I'm not surprised that your box is
writhing in agony. Can you twiddle that?
twiddle that how?
The system has 4 physical cpus (sockets). Each cpu has 32 cores with 8
threads per core and each cpu has 4 memory controllers.
If I disable SCHED_MC and CGROUPS_SCHED (group scheduling) there is a
noticeable improvement -- watchdog does not trigger and I do not get the
rq locks held for 2-3 seconds. But there is still fairly high cpu usage
for an idle system. Perhaps I should leave SCHED_MC on and disable
SCHED_SMT; I'll try that today.
Thanks,
David
