From: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin@xxxxxxxxxx>
Since balancing mode was added in
bda420b98505 ("numa balancing: migrate on fault among multiple bound nodes"),
it was possible to set this mode but it wouldn't be shown in
/proc/<pid>/numa_maps since there was no support for it in the
mpol_to_str() helper.
Furthermore, because the balancing mode sets the MPOL_F_MORON flag, it
would be displayed as 'default' due a workaround introduced a few years
earlier in
8790c71a18e5 ("mm/mempolicy.c: fix mempolicy printing in numa_maps").
To tidy this up we implement two changes:
Replace the MPOL_F_MORON check by pointer comparison against the
preferred_node_policy array. By doing this we generalise the current
special casing and replace the incorrect 'default' with the correct
'bind' for the mode.
Secondly, we add a string representation and corresponding handling for
the MPOL_F_NUMA_BALANCING flag.
With the two changes together we start showing the balancing flag when it
is set and therefore complete the fix.
Representation format chosen is to separate multiple flags with vertical
bars, following what existed long time ago in kernel 2.6.25. But as
between then and now there wasn't a way to display multiple flags, this
patch does not change the format in practice.
Some /proc/<pid>/numa_maps output examples:
555559580000 bind=balancing:0-1,3 file=...
555585800000 bind=balancing|static:0,2 file=...
555635240000 prefer=relative:0 file=
v2:
* Fully fix by introducing MPOL_F_KERNEL.
v3:
* Abandoned the MPOL_F_KERNEL approach in favour of pointer comparisons.
* Removed lookup generalisation for easier backporting.
* Replaced commas as separator with vertical bars.
* Added a few more words about the string format in the commit message.
