Revision 757be186129b674e3a0146a4bc1861ed0744cd95 authored by Neil Horman on 05 August 2006, 19:14:45 UTC, committed by Linus Torvalds on 06 August 2006, 15:57:48 UTC
Clean up proc file removal in sq module for superh arch.  currently on a
failed module load or on module unload a proc file is left registered which
can cause a random memory execution or oopses if read after unload.  This
patch cleans up that deregistration.

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 this node,
					but ended up with memory from another.
numa_foreign		A process wanted to allocate on another node,
				    but ended up with memory from this 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
(ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/ak/numa/numactl*). Note that it only works
well right now on machines with a small number of CPUs.
