[RFC PATCH 08/11] mm/mempolicy: add set_mempolicy2 syscall

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

 



set_mempolicy2 is an extensible set_mempolicy interface which allows
a user to set the per-task memory policy.

Defined as:

set_mempolicy2(struct mpol_args *args, size_t size, unsigned long flags);

relevant mpol_args fields include the following:

mode:         The MPOL_* policy (DEFAULT, INTERLEAVE, etc.)
mode_flags:   The MPOL_F_* flags that were previously passed in or'd
              into the mode.  This was split to hopefully allow future
              extensions additional mode/flag space.
pol_nodes:    the nodemask to apply for the memory policy
pol_maxnodes: The max number of nodes described by pol_nodes

The usize arg is intended for the user to pass in sizeof(mpol_args)
to allow forward/backward compatibility whenever possible.

The flags argument is intended to future proof the syscall against
future extensions which may require interpreting the arguments in
the structure differently.

Semantics of `set_mempolicy` are otherwise the same as `set_mempolicy`
as of this patch.
