Revision 231c807a60715312e2a93a001cc9be9b888bc350 authored by Linus Torvalds on 24 March 2019, 18:42:10 UTC, committed by Linus Torvalds on 24 March 2019, 18:42:10 UTC
Pull scheduler updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Third more careful attempt for this set of fixes:

   - Prevent a 32bit math overflow in the cpufreq code

   - Fix a buffer overflow when scanning the cgroup2 cpu.max property

   - A set of fixes for the NOHZ scheduler logic to prevent waking up
     CPUs even if the capacity of the busy CPUs is sufficient along with
     other tweaks optimizing the behaviour for asymmetric systems
     (big/little)"

* 'sched-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
  sched/fair: Skip LLC NOHZ logic for asymmetric systems
  sched/fair: Tune down misfit NOHZ kicks
  sched/fair: Comment some nohz_balancer_kick() kick conditions
  sched/core: Fix buffer overflow in cgroup2 property cpu.max
  sched/cpufreq: Fix 32-bit math overflow

===============================
Numa policy hit/miss statistics
===============================

/sys/devices/system/node/node*/numastat

All units are pages. Hugepages have separate counters.

=============== ============================================================
numa_hit	A process wanted to allocate memory from this node,
		and succeeded.

numa_miss	A process wanted to allocate memory from another node,
		but ended up with memory from this node.

numa_foreign	A process wanted to allocate on this node,
		but ended up with memory from another one.

local_node	A process ran on this node and got memory from it.

other_node	A process ran on this node and got memory from another node.

interleave_hit 	Interleaving wanted to allocate from this node
		and succeeded.
=============== ============================================================

For easier reading you can use the numastat utility from the numactl package
(http://oss.sgi.com/projects/libnuma/). Note that it only works
well right now on machines with a small number of CPUs.
