As per draft LoPAPR (Revision 2.9_pre7), section B.5.3 "Run Time
Abstraction Services (RTAS) Node" available at:
https://openpowerfoundation.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/LoPAR-20200611.pdf
... there are 2 device tree properties:
"ibm,max-associativity-domains"
which defines the maximum number of domains that the firmware i.e
PowerVM can support.
and:
"ibm,current-associativity-domains"
which defines the maximum number of domains that the current
platform can support.
The value of "ibm,max-associativity-domains" is always greater than or
equal to "ibm,current-associativity-domains" property. If the latter
property is not available, use "ibm,max-associativity-domain" as a
fallback. In this yet to be released LoPAPR, "ibm,current-associativity-domains"
is mentioned in page 833 / B.5.3 which is covered under under
"Appendix B. System Binding" section
Currently powerpc uses the "ibm,max-associativity-domains" property
while setting the possible number of nodes. This is currently set at
32. However the possible number of nodes for a platform may be
significantly less. Hence set the possible number of nodes based on
"ibm,current-associativity-domains" property.
Nathan Lynch had raised a valid concern that post LPM (Live Partition
Migration), a user could DLPAR add processors and memory after LPM
with "new" associativity properties:
https://lore.kernel.org/linuxppc-dev/871rljfet9.fsf@linux.ibm.com/t/#u
He also pointed out that "ibm,max-associativity-domains" has the same
contents on all currently available PowerVM systems, unlike
"ibm,current-associativity-domains" and hence may be better able to
handle the new NUMA associativity properties.
