| |
Patch from Martin J. Bligh
This adds a small hook to the find_busiest_queue routine to allow us to specify a mask of which CPUs to search over. In the NUMA case, it will only balance inside the node (much cheaper to search, and stops tasks from bouncing across nodes, which is very costly). The cpus_to_balance routine is conditionally defined to ensure no impact to non-NUMA machines.
This is a tiny NUMA scheduler, but it needs the assistance of the second and third patches in order to spread tasks across nodes.
