[PATCH 50/50] sched: numa: Avoid migrating tasks that are placed on their preferred node
From: Mel Gorman
Date: Tue Sep 10 2013 - 05:34:00 EST
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
(This changelog needs more work, it's currently inaccurate and it's not
clear at exactly what point rt > env->fbq_type is true for the logic to
kick in)
This patch classifies scheduler domains and runqueues into FBQ (cannot
guess what this expands to) types which are one of
regular: There are tasks running that do not care about their NUMA
placement
remote: There are tasks running that care about their placement but are
currently running on a node remote to their ideal placement
all: No distinction
To implement this the patch tracks the number of tasks that are optimally
NUMA placed (rq->nr_preferred_running) and the number of tasks running that
care about their placement (nr_numa_running). The load balancer uses this
information to avoid migrating idea placed NUMA tasks as long as better
options for load balancing exists.
