* core: plumbing to support numa aware scheduling
* core: apply node resources compatibility upon fsm rstore
Handle the case where an upgraded server dequeus an evaluation before
a client triggers a new fingerprint - which would be needed to cause
the compatibility fix to run. By running the compat fix on restore the
server will immediately have the compatible pseudo topology to use.
* lint: learn how to spell pseudo
* client: refactor cpuset partitioning
This PR updates the way Nomad client manages the split between tasks
that make use of resources.cpus vs. resources.cores.
Previously, each task was explicitly assigned which CPU cores they were
able to run on. Every time a task was started or destroyed, all other
tasks' cpusets would need to be updated. This was inefficient and would
crush the Linux kernel when a client would try to run ~400 or so tasks.
Now, we make use of cgroup heirarchy and cpuset inheritence to efficiently
manage cpusets.
* cr: tweaks for feedback
* client/fingerprint: correctly fingerprint E/P cores of Apple Silicon chips
This PR adds detection of asymetric core types (Power & Efficiency) (P/E)
when running on M1/M2 Apple Silicon CPUs. This functionality is provided
by shoenig/go-m1cpu which makes use of the Apple IOKit framework to read
undocumented registers containing CPU performance data. Currently working
on getting that functionality merged upstream into gopsutil, but gopsutil
would still not support detecting P vs E cores like this PR does.
Also refactors the CPUFingerprinter code to handle the mixed core
types, now setting power vs efficiency cpu attributes.
For now the scheduler is still unaware of mixed core types - on Apple
platforms tasks cannot reserve cores anyway so it doesn't matter, but
at least now the total CPU shares available will be correct.
Future work should include adding support for detecting P/E cores on
the latest and upcoming Intel chips, where computation of total cpu shares
is currently incorrect. For that, we should also include updating the
scheduler to be core-type aware, so that tasks of resources.cores on Linux
platforms can be assigned the correct number of CPU shares for the core
type(s) they have been assigned.
