[RFC][PATCH 24/23] sched: Rewrite CONFIG_NUMA support

[Peter Zijlstra]

The below is proven to be broken on a non-trivial NUMA setup (4 socekt
magny-cours, tested by Andreas) but shows the direction I'm wanting to
take for NUMA.

The current stuff 16 nodes in a domain and one top-level domain to rule
them all just doesn't sound right, esp for these small
non-fully-connected systems of today.

So what it attempts is to sort the numa-distance table and create
domains for each grouping resulting from that. This should then match
the actual machine topology much better.

The problem with it is that its quite possible to generate overlapping
groups for a domain and the magny-cours topology makes that happen. I've
still not quite figured out wth to do about that though :-/

Subject: sched: Rewrite CONFIG_NUMA support
From: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@xxxxxxxxx>
Date: Fri Mar 25 21:52:17 CET 2011

Rewrite the CONFIG_NUMA sched domain support.

The current code groups up to 16 nodes in a level and then puts an
ALLNODES domain spanning the entire tree on top of that. This doesn't
reflect the numa topology and esp for the smaller not-fully-connected
machines out there today this might make a difference.

Therefore, build a proper numa topology based on node_distance().

TODO: figure out a way to set SD_flags based on distance such that
      we disable various expensive load-balancing features at some
      point and increase the balance interval prop. to the distance.

XXX: remove debug prints
