* Cpuset hardwall flag: add a mem_hardwall flag to cpusetsPaul Menage2008-04-291-12/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | This flag provides the hardwalling properties of mem_exclusive, without enforcing the exclusivity. Either mem_hardwall or mem_exclusive is sufficient to prevent GFP_KERNEL allocations from passing outside the cpuset's assigned nodes.

* sched, cpuset: customize sched domains, docsHidetoshi Seto2008-04-191-2/+70
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch introduces new feature of cpuset - sched domain customization. This version provides a per-cpuset file 'sched_relax_domain_level' that enable us to change the searching range of scheduler, which used to limit how many cpus the scheduler searches at some schedule events, such as wakening task and running out of runqueue.

* cpuset sched_load_balance flagPaul Jackson2007-10-191-2/+139
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a new per-cpuset flag called 'sched_load_balance'. When enabled in a cpuset (the default value) it tells the kernel scheduler that the scheduler should provide the normal load balancing on the CPUs in that cpuset, sometimes moving tasks from one CPU to a second CPU if the second CPU is less loaded and if that task is allowed to run there. When disabled (write "0" to the file) then it tells the kernel scheduler that load balancing is not required for the CPUs in that cpuset. Now even if this flag is disabled for some cpuset, the kernel may still have to load balance some or all the CPUs in that cpuset, if some overlapping cpuset has its sched_load_balance flag enabled. If there are some CPUs that are not in any cpuset whose sched_load_balance flag is enabled, the kernel scheduler will not load balance tasks to those CPUs. Moreover the kernel will partition the 'sched domains' (non-overlapping sets of CPUs over which load balancing is attempted) into the finest granularity partition that it can find, while still keeping any two CPUs that are in the same shed_load_balance enabled cpuset in the same element of the partition. This serves two purposes: 1) It provides a mechanism for real time isolation of some CPUs, and 2) it can be used to improve performance on systems with many CPUs by supporting configurations in which load balancing is not done across all CPUs at once, but rather only done in several smaller disjoint sets of CPUs. This mechanism replaces the earlier overloading of the per-cpuset flag 'cpu_exclusive', which overloading was removed in an earlier patch: cpuset-remove-sched-domain-hooks-from-cpusets See further the Documentation and comments in the code itself.

* cpuset: remove sched domain hooks from cpusetsPaul Jackson2007-10-161-17/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove the cpuset hooks that defined sched domains depending on the setting of the 'cpu_exclusive' flag. The cpu_exclusive flag can only be set on a child if it is set on the parent. This made that flag painfully unsuitable for use as a flag defining a partitioning of a system. It was entirely unobvious to a cpuset user what partitioning of sched domains they would be causing when they set that one cpu_exclusive bit on one cpuset, because it depended on what CPUs were in the remainder of that cpusets siblings and child cpusets, after subtracting out other cpu_exclusive cpusets. Furthermore, there was no way on production systems to query the result. Using the cpu_exclusive flag for this was simply wrong from the get go. Fortunately, it was sufficiently borked that so far as I know, almost no successful use has been made of this. One real time group did use it to affectively isolate CPUs from any load balancing efforts. They are willing to adapt to alternative mechanisms for this, such as someway to manipulate the list of isolated CPUs on a running system. They can do without this present cpu_exclusive based mechanism while we develop an alternative. There is a real risk, to the best of my understanding, of users accidentally setting up a partitioned scheduler domains, inhibiting desired load balancing across all their CPUs, due to the nonobvious (from the cpuset perspective) side affects of the cpu_exclusive flag. Furthermore, since there was no way on a running system to see what one was doing with sched domains, this change will be invisible to any using code. Unless they have real insight to the scheduler load balancing choices, they will be unable to detect that this change has been made in the kernel's behaviour. Initial discussion on lkml of this patch has generated much comment. My (probably controversial) take on that discussion is that it has reached a rough concensus that the current cpuset cpu_exclusive mechanism for defining sched domains is borked. There is no concensus on the replacement. But since we can remove this mechanism, and since its continued presence risks causing unwanted partitioning of the schedulers load balancing, we should remove it while we can, as we proceed to work the replacement scheduler domain mechanisms.

* Memoryless nodes: Use N_HIGH_MEMORY for cpusetsChristoph Lameter2007-10-161-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | cpusets try to ensure that any node added to a cpuset's mems_allowed is on-line and contains memory. The assumption was that online nodes contained memory. Thus, it is possible to add memoryless nodes to a cpuset and then add tasks to this cpuset. This results in continuous series of oom-kill and apparent system hang. Change cpusets to use node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY] [a.k.a. node_memory_map] in place of node_online_map when vetting memories. Return error if admin attempts to write a non-empty mems_allowed node mask containing only memoryless-nodes.

* [PATCH] CPUSETS: add mems to basic usage documentationSimon Horman2007-04-021-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It seems that there must be at least one node in mems and at least one CPU in cpus in order to be able to assign tasks to a cpuset. This makes sense. And I think it would also make sense to include a mems setting in the basic usage section of the documentation. I also wonder if something logged to dmsg, explaining why a write failed, would be a good enhancement. I ended up having rummage arround in cpuset.c in order to work out why my configuration was failing.

* [PATCH] cpuset: top_cpuset tracks hotplug changes to node_online_mapPaul Jackson2006-09-291-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change the list of memory nodes allowed to tasks in the top (root) nodeset to dynamically track what cpus are online, using a call to a cpuset hook from the memory hotplug code. Make this top cpus file read-only. On systems that have cpusets configured in their kernel, but that aren't actively using cpusets (for some distros, this covers the majority of systems) all tasks end up in the top cpuset. If that system does support memory hotplug, then these tasks cannot make use of memory nodes that are added after system boot, because the memory nodes are not allowed in the top cpuset. This is a surprising regression over earlier kernels that didn't have cpusets enabled. One key motivation for this change is to remain consistent with the behaviour for the top_cpuset's 'cpus', which is also read-only, and which automatically tracks the cpu_online_map. This change also has the minor benefit that it fixes a long standing, little noticed, minor bug in cpusets. The cpuset performance tweak to short circuit the cpuset_zone_allowed() check on systems with just a single cpuset (see 'number_of_cpusets', in linux/cpuset.h) meant that simply changing the 'mems' of the top_cpuset had no affect, even though the change (the write system call) appeared to succeed. With the following change, that write to the 'mems' file fails -EACCES, and the 'mems' file stubbornly refuses to be changed via user space writes. Thus no one should be mislead into thinking they've changed the top_cpusets's 'mems' when in affect they haven't. In order to keep the behaviour of cpusets consistent between systems actively making use of them and systems not using them, this patch changes the behaviour of the 'mems' file in the top (root) cpuset, making it read only, and making it automatically track the value of node_online_map. Thus tasks in the top cpuset will have automatic use of hot plugged memory nodes allowed by their cpuset.

* [PATCH] cpuset memory spread basic implementationPaul Jackson2006-03-241-2/+74
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch provides the implementation and cpuset interface for an alternative memory allocation policy that can be applied to certain kinds of memory allocations, such as the page cache (file system buffers) and some slab caches (such as inode caches). The policy is called "memory spreading." If enabled, it spreads out these kinds of memory allocations over all the nodes allowed to a task, instead of preferring to place them on the node where the task is executing. All other kinds of allocations, including anonymous pages for a tasks stack and data regions, are not affected by this policy choice, and continue to be allocated preferring the node local to execution, as modified by the NUMA mempolicy. There are two boolean flag files per cpuset that control where the kernel allocates pages for the file system buffers and related in kernel data structures. They are called 'memory_spread_page' and 'memory_spread_slab'. If the per-cpuset boolean flag file 'memory_spread_page' is set, then the kernel will spread the file system buffers (page cache) evenly over all the nodes that the faulting task is allowed to use, instead of preferring to put those pages on the node where the task is running. If the per-cpuset boolean flag file 'memory_spread_slab' is set, then the kernel will spread some file system related slab caches, such as for inodes and dentries evenly over all the nodes that the faulting task is allowed to use, instead of preferring to put those pages on the node where the task is running. The implementation is simple. Setting the cpuset flags 'memory_spread_page' or 'memory_spread_cache' turns on the per-process flags PF_SPREAD_PAGE or PF_SPREAD_SLAB, respectively, for each task that is in the cpuset or subsequently joins that cpuset. In subsequent patches, the page allocation calls for the affected page cache and slab caches are modified to perform an inline check for these flags, and if set, a call to a new routine cpuset_mem_spread_node() returns the node to prefer for the allocation. The cpuset_mem_spread_node() routine is also simple. It uses the value of a per-task rotor cpuset_mem_spread_rotor to select the next node in the current tasks mems_allowed to prefer for the allocation. This policy can provide substantial improvements for jobs that need to place thread local data on the corresponding node, but that need to access large file system data sets that need to be spread across the several nodes in the jobs cpuset in order to fit. Without this patch, especially for jobs that might have one thread reading in the data set, the memory allocation across the nodes in the jobs cpuset can become very uneven. A couple of Copyright year ranges are updated as well. And a couple of email addresses that can be found in the MAINTAINERS file are removed.

Also anytime that a cpuset so marked has its memory placement changed (by writing to its "mems" file), the tasks in that cpuset will have their pages moved to the cpusets new nodes, preserving, to the extent practical, the cpuset-relative placement of the moved pages.

* [PATCH] cpusets: formalize intermediate GFP_KERNEL containmentPaul Jackson2005-09-071-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch makes use of the previously underutilized cpuset flag 'mem_exclusive' to provide what amounts to another layer of memory placement resolution. With this patch, there are now the following four layers of memory placement available: 1) The whole system (interrupt and GFP_ATOMIC allocations can use this), 2) The nearest enclosing mem_exclusive cpuset (GFP_KERNEL allocations can use), 3) The current tasks cpuset (GFP_USER allocations constrained to here), and 4) Specific node placement, using mbind and set_mempolicy. These nest - each layer is a subset (same or within) of the previous. Layer (2) above is new, with this patch. The call used to check whether a zone (its node, actually) is in a cpuset (in its mems_allowed, actually) is extended to take a gfp_mask argument, and its logic is extended, in the case that __GFP_HARDWALL is not set in the flag bits, to look up the cpuset hierarchy for the nearest enclosing mem_exclusive cpuset, to determine if placement is allowed. The definition of GFP_USER, which used to be identical to GFP_KERNEL, is changed to also set the __GFP_HARDWALL bit, in the previous cpuset_gfp_hardwall_flag patch. GFP_ATOMIC and GFP_KERNEL allocations will stay within the current tasks cpuset, so long as any node therein is not too tight on memory, but will escape to the larger layer, if need be. The intended use is to allow something like a batch manager to handle several jobs, each job in its own cpuset, but using common kernel memory for caches and such. Swapper and oom_kill activity is also constrained to Layer (2). A task in or below one mem_exclusive cpuset should not cause swapping on nodes in another non-overlapping mem_exclusive cpuset, nor provoke oom_killing of a task in another such cpuset. Heavy use of kernel memory for i/o caching and such by one job should not impact the memory available to jobs in other non-overlapping mem_exclusive cpusets. This patch enables providing hardwall, inescapable cpusets for memory allocations of each job, while sharing kernel memory allocations between several jobs, in an enclosing mem_exclusive cpuset. Like Dinakar's patch earlier to enable administering sched domains using the cpu_exclusive flag, this patch also provides a useful meaning to a cpuset flag that had previously done nothing much useful other than restrict what cpuset configurations were allowed.

* [PATCH] cpusets+hotplug+preepmt brokenPaul Jackson2005-05-201-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch removes the entwining of cpusets and hotplug code in the "No more Mr. Nice Guy" case of sched.c move_task_off_dead_cpu(). Since the hotplug code is holding a spinlock at this point, we cannot take the cpuset semaphore, cpuset_sem, as would seem to be required either to update the tasks cpuset, or to scan up the nested cpuset chain, looking for the nearest cpuset ancestor that still has some CPUs that are online. So we just punt and blast the tasks cpus_allowed with all bits allowed. This reverts these lines of code to what they were before the cpuset patch. And it updates the cpuset Doc file, to match. The one known alternative to this that seems to work came from Dinakar Guniguntala, and required the hotplug code to take the cpuset_sem semaphore much earlier in its processing. So far as we know, the increased locking entanglement between cpusets and hot plug of this alternative approach is not worth doing in this case.
