[PATCH/RFC 5/8] numa: Introduce numa_mem_id()- effective local memory node id

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Against:  2.6.33-mmotm-100302-1838

Introduce numa_mem_id(), based on generic percpu variable infrastructure
to track "effective local memory node" for archs that support memoryless
nodes.

Define API in <linux/topology.h> when CONFIG_HAVE_MEMORYLESS_NODES
defined, else stubs. Architectures will define HAVE_MEMORYLESS_NODES
if/when they support them.

Archs can override definitions of:

numa_mem_id() - returns node number of "local memory" node
set_numa_mem() - initialize [this cpus'] per cpu variable 'numa_mem'
cpu_to_mem()  - return numa_mem for specified cpu; may be used as lvalue

if they don't want to use the generic version, but want to support
memoryless nodes.

Generic initialization of 'numa_mem' occurs in __build_all_zonelists().
This will initialize the boot cpu at boot time, and all cpus on change of
numa_zonelist_order, or when node or memory hot-plug requires zonelist rebuild.
Archs that use this implementation will need to initialize 'numa_mem' for
secondary cpus as they're brought on-line.

Question:  Is it worth adding a generic initialization of per cpu numa_mem?
E.g.,  built only when CONFIG_HAVE_MEMORYLESS_NODES defined?  Or leave it
to the archs?

     + flesh out the definition
