From 2c8a50aa873a7e1d6cc0913362051ff9912dc6ca Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mel Gorman Date: Mon, 7 Oct 2013 11:29:18 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] sched/numa: Favor placing a task on the preferred node A tasks preferred node is selected based on the number of faults recorded for a node but the actual task_numa_migate() conducts a global search regardless of the preferred nid. This patch checks if the preferred nid has capacity and if so, searches for a CPU within that node. This avoids a global search when the preferred node is not overloaded.
