From cd4ea6ae3982f6861da3b510e69cbc194f331d83 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Thu, 7 Apr 2011 14:09:45 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] sched: Change NODE sched_domain group creation The NODE sched_domain is 'special' in that it allocates sched_groups per CPU, instead of sharing the sched_groups between all CPUs. While this might have some benefits on large NUMA and avoid remote memory accesses when iterating the sched_groups, this does break current code that assumes sched_groups are shared between all sched_domains (since the dynamic cpu_power patches). So refactor the NODE groups to behave like all other groups. (The ALLNODES domain again shared its groups across the CPUs for some reason). If someone does measure a performance decrease due to this change we need to revisit this and come up with another way to have both dynamic cpu_power and NUMA work nice together.
