[PATCH] cpuset: migrate all tasks in cpuset at once
...
Given the mechanism in the previous patch to handle rebinding the per-vma
mempolicies of all tasks in a cpuset that changes its memory placement, it is
now easier to handle the page migration requirements of such tasks at the same
time.
The previous code didn't actually attempt to migrate the pages of the tasks in
a cpuset whose memory placement changed until the next time each such task
tried to allocate memory. This was undesirable, as users invoking memory page
migration exected to happen when the placement changed, not some unspecified
time later when the task needed more memory.
It is now trivial to handle the page migration at the same time as the per-vma
rebinding is done.
The routine cpuset.c:update_nodemask(), which handles changing a cpusets
memory placement ('mems') now checks for the special case of being asked to
write a placement that is the same as before. It was harmless enough before
to just recompute everything again, even though nothing had changed. But page
migration is a heavy weight operation - moving pages about. So now it is
worth avoiding that if asked to move a cpuset to its current location.
