[PATCH 07/36] autonuma: mm_autonuma and task_autonuma data structures

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

 



Define the two data structures that collect the per-process (in the
mm) and per-thread (in the task_struct) statistical information that
are the input of the CPU follow memory algorithms in the NUMA
scheduler.
