This bug was initially created as a copy of Bug #2184860 I am copying this bug because: Description of problem: The node labeller marks the nodes with: * their exact TSC frequency * the lowest TSC frequency in the cluster IF they support tsc-scalable Hypothetical example, on a cluster where the lowest frequency is X NAME TSC-FREQUENCY TSC-SCALABLE TSC-FREQUENCY-X TSC-FREQUENCY-Y node1 X true true node2 Y true true true node3 Y false true However, TSC scaling may not be an exact number in many CPU models, leaving some possible variation. See this, same CPU on 2 different systems (or even same system and 2 reboots), there is a 1 Mhz difference that can show up between reboots or systems with same CPU [ 0.000000] tsc: Fast TSC calibration using PIT [ 0.000000] tsc: Detected 2297.345 MHz processor [ 4.127014] tsc: Refined TSC clocksource calibration: 2297.339 MHz [ 0.000000] tsc: Fast TSC calibration using PIT [ 0.000000] tsc: Detected 2297.449 MHz processor [ 4.063010] tsc: Refined TSC clocksource calibration: 2297.338 MHz If we do X = 2297.338 Y = 2297.339 Then a Windows VM with re-enlightenment will never run on node3, because its missing TSC-FREQUENCY-X label by 1MHZ off. The logic will consider this an heterogeneous cluster, but its not. The system should be able to schedule VMs on any of those 3 nodes, regardless of TSC-SCALABLE or not. Because these are essentially the same frequency. Lower layers accept this variance, BZ1839095 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 4.12.10 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use systems with TSC-SCALABLE = false and same CPUs, reboot until different frequencies. Actual results: * VMs fail to schedule on nodes with same CPU Expected results: * VMs scheduled
