Changelog since V3 o Calculate imb_numa_nr for multiple SD_NUMA domains o Restore behaviour where communicating pairs remain on the same node
Commit 7d2b5dd0bcc4 ("sched/numa: Allow a floating imbalance between NUMA nodes") allowed an imbalance between NUMA nodes such that communicating tasks would not be pulled apart by the load balancer. This works fine when there is a 1:1 relationship between LLC and node but can be suboptimal for multiple LLCs if independent tasks prematurely use CPUs sharing cache.
The series addresses two problems -- inconsistent use of scheduler domain weights and sub-optimal performance when there are many LLCs per NUMA node.
