| * | [PATCH] Export cpu topology in sysfsZhang, Yanmin2006-02-031-0/+41
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The patch implements cpu topology exportation by sysfs. Items (attributes) are similar to /proc/cpuinfo. 1) /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/physical_package_id: represent the physical package id of cpu X; 2) /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/core_id: represent the cpu core id to cpu X; 3) /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/thread_siblings: represent the thread siblings to cpu X in the same core; 4) /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/core_siblings: represent the thread siblings to cpu X in the same physical package; To implement it in an architecture-neutral way, a new source file, driver/base/topology.c, is to export the 5 attributes. If one architecture wants to support this feature, it just needs to implement 4 defines, typically in file include/asm-XXX/topology.h. The 4 defines are: #define topology_physical_package_id(cpu) #define topology_core_id(cpu) #define topology_thread_siblings(cpu) #define topology_core_siblings(cpu) The type of **_id is int. The type of siblings is cpumask_t. To be consistent on all architectures, the 4 attributes should have deafult values if their values are unavailable. Below is the rule. 1) physical_package_id: If cpu has no physical package id, -1 is the default value. 2) core_id: If cpu doesn't support multi-core, its core id is 0. 3) thread_siblings: Just include itself, if the cpu doesn't support HT/multi-thread. 4) core_siblings: Just include itself, if the cpu doesn't support multi-core and HT/Multi-thread. So be careful when declaring the 4 defines in include/asm-XXX/topology.h. If an attribute isn't defined on an architecture, it won't be exported. Thank Nathan, Greg, Andi, Paul and Venki. The patch provides defines for i386/x86_64/ia64.

Direct migration support on top of the swap based page migration facility. This allows the direct migration of anonymous pages and the migration of file backed pages by dropping the associated buffers (requires writeout). Fall back to swap out if necessary. The patch is based on lots of patches from the hotplug project but the code was restructured, documented and simplified as much as possible. Note that an additional patch that defines the migrate_page() method for filesystems is necessary in order to avoid writeback for anonymous and file backed pages.

This patch shakes the slab a bit. The problem with this patch is that the slab reclaim is not containable to a zone. Thus slab reclaim may affect the whole system and be extremely slow. This also means that we cannot determine how many pages were freed in this zone. Thus we need to go off node for at least one allocation. The functionality is disabled by default. We could modify the shrinkers to take a zone parameter but that would be quite invasive. Better ideas are welcome.

| * | | | | | | [PATCH] Zone reclaim: Allow modification of zone reclaim behaviorChristoph Lameter2006-02-011-8/+30

For example a process writing large amounts of memory will spew unto other nodes to cache the writes if many pages in a zone become dirty. This may impact the performance of processes running on other nodes. Allowing writes during reclaim puts a stop to that behavior and throttles the process by restricting the pages to the local zone. Similarly one may want to contain processes to local memory by enabling regular swap behavior during zone_reclaim. Off node memory allocation can then be controlled through memory policies and cpusets.

Reclaim will be attempted again after this timeout period to avoid repeated useless scans for memory. This is also useful to established sufficiently large off node allocation chunks to relieve the local node. It may be beneficial to adjust that time period for some special situations. For example if memory use was exceeding node capacity one may want to give up for longer periods of time. If memory spikes intermittendly then one may want to shorten the time period to reduce the number of off node allocations. This patch allows just that....

This requires several places that require to be inlined to be marked as such, previous patches in this series do that.

* | | | | | | [PATCH] Add tmpfs options for memory placement policiesRobin Holt2006-01-141-0/+12

Since there's no telling what sort of application (e.g. dd/cp/cat) might be dropping large files there, this lets the admin choose the appropriate default behavior for their site's situation. Introduce a tmpfs mount option which allows specifying a memory policy and a second option to specify the nodelist for that policy. With the default policy, tmpfs will behave as it does today. This patch adds support for preferred, bind, and interleave policies. The default policy will cause pages to be added to tmpfs files on the node which is doing the writing. Some jobs expect a single process to create and manage the tmpfs files. This results in a node which has a significantly reduced number of free pages. With this patch, the administrator can specify the policy and nodes for that policy where they would prefer allocations. This patch was originally written by Brent Casavant and Hugh Dickins. I added support for the bind and preferred policies and the mpol_nodelist mount option.
