The following rules apply to each cpuset:
- Its CPUs and Memory Nodes must be a subset of its parents.
- - It can only be marked exclusive if its parent is.
+ - It can't be marked exclusive unless its parent is.
- If its cpu or memory is exclusive, they may not overlap any sibling.
These rules, and the natural hierarchy of cpusets, enable efficient
flag, and if set, a call to a new routine cpuset_mem_spread_node()
returns the node to prefer for the allocation.
-Similarly, setting 'memory_spread_cache' turns on the flag
+Similarly, setting 'memory_spread_slab' turns on the flag
PF_SPREAD_SLAB, and appropriately marked slab caches will allocate
pages from the node returned by cpuset_mem_spread_node().
2 : search cores in a package.
3 : search cpus in a node [= system wide on non-NUMA system]
( 4 : search nodes in a chunk of node [on NUMA system] )
- ( 5~ : search system wide [on NUMA system])
+ ( 5 : search system wide [on NUMA system] )
This file is per-cpuset and affect the sched domain where the cpuset
belongs to. Therefore if the flag 'sched_load_balance' of a cpuset
In this directory you can find several files:
# ls
-cpus cpu_exclusive mems mem_exclusive mem_hardwall tasks
+cpu_exclusive memory_migrate mems tasks
+cpus memory_pressure notify_on_release
+mem_exclusive memory_spread_page sched_load_balance
+mem_hardwall memory_spread_slab sched_relax_domain_level
Reading them will give you information about the state of this cpuset:
the CPUs and Memory Nodes it can use, the processes that are using
