The normal x86_topology on NHM+ machines degenerates because the MC and CPU domains are of the same size, therefore MC inherits SD_PREFER_SIBLING from CPU (which then gets taken out). The result is that we'll spread tasks across the first NUMA level in order to maximize cache utilization. However, for the x86_numa_in_package_topology we loose the CPU domain, and we'll not have SD_PREFER_SIBLING set anywhere, giving a distinct difference in behaviour. Commit:8e7fbcbc22("sched: Remove stale power aware scheduling remnants and dysfunctional knobs") made a fail by not preserving the SD_PREFER_SIBLING for the !power_saving case on both CPU and MC. Then commit:6956dc568f("sched/numa: Add SD_PERFER_SIBLING to CPU domain") adds it back to the CPU but not MC. Restore that now, such that we get consistent spreading behaviour wrt L3 and NUMA.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
