intel 超线程技术脚步检测是否开启

前言

intel的超线程技术能让一个物理核上并行执行两个线程，大多数情况下能提高硬件资源的利用率，增强系统性能。对于cpu密集型的数值程序，超线程技术可能会导致整体程序性能下降。鉴于此，执行OpenMP或者MPI数值程序时建议关闭超线程技术。

以下是github上找到的动态打开、关闭超线程技术的脚本。其原理是根据/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/thread_siblings_list文件找到逻辑核的关系，然后编辑/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/online文件实现动态开启和关闭超线程技术。

If the number of logical processors is twice the number of cores you have HT. Use to following script to decode /proc/cpuinfo:

#!/bin/sh
CPUFILE=/proc/cpuinfo
test -f $CPUFILE || exit 1
NUMPHY=`grep "physical id" $CPUFILE | sort -u | wc -l`
NUMLOG=`grep "processor" $CPUFILE | wc -l`
if [ $NUMPHY -eq 1 ]
  then
    echo This system has one physical CPU,
  else
    echo This system has $NUMPHY physical CPUs,
fi
if [ $NUMLOG -gt 1 ]
  then
    echo and $NUMLOG logical CPUs.
    NUMCORE=`grep "core id" $CPUFILE | sort -u | wc -l`
    if [ $NUMCORE -gt 1 ]
      then
        echo For every physical CPU there are $NUMCORE cores.
    fi
  else
    echo and one logical CPU.
fi
echo -n The CPU is a `grep "model name" $CPUFILE | sort -u | cut -d : -f 2-`
echo " with`grep "cache size" $CPUFILE | sort -u | cut -d : -f 2-` cache"
