Switch cpumask_local_spread() to use newly added sched_numa_find_nth_cpu(), which takes into account distances to each node in the system. For the following NUMA configuration: root@debian:~# numactl -H available: 4 nodes (0-3) node 0 cpus: 0 1 2 3 node 0 size: 3869 MB node 0 free: 3740 MB node 1 cpus: 4 5 node 1 size: 1969 MB node 1 free: 1937 MB node 2 cpus: 6 7 node 2 size: 1967 MB node 2 free: 1873 MB node 3 cpus: 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 node 3 size: 7842 MB node 3 free: 7723 MB node distances: node 0 1 2 3 0: 10 50 30 70 1: 50 10 70 30 2: 30 70 10 50 3: 70 30 50 10 The new cpumask_local_spread() traverses cpus for each node like this: node 0: 0 1 2 3 6 7 4 5 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 node 1: 4 5 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 0 1 2 3 6 7 node 2: 6 7 0 1 2 3 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 4 5 node 3: 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 4 5 6 7 0 1 2 3 Signed-off-by: Yury Norov <yury.norov@gmail.com> Acked-by: Tariq Toukan <tariqt@nvidia.com> Reviewed-by: Jacob Keller <jacob.e.keller@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Peter Lafreniere <peter@n8pjl.ca> Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
