AMD 24-core EPYC

  • L3 (cpuset 0x60000060) intersects with NUMANode (P#0 cpuset 0x3f00003f nodeset 0x00000001) without inclusion!

Fixed in 4.14 in commit

    x86/cpu/amd: Derive L3 shared_cpu_map from cpu_llc_shared_mask
    
    For systems with X86_FEATURE_TOPOEXT, current logic uses the APIC ID
    to calculate shared_cpu_map. However, APIC IDs are not guaranteed to
    be contiguous for cores across different L3s (e.g. family17h system
    w/ downcore configuration). This breaks the logic, and results in an
    incorrect L3 shared_cpu_map.
    
    Instead, always use the previously calculated cpu_llc_shared_mask of
    each CPU to derive the L3 shared_cpu_map.

Backported in upstream 4.13.16.
