Revision 7f59203abeaf18bf3497b308891f95a4489810ad authored by Josef Bacik on 27 January 2010, 02:09:00 UTC, committed by Chris Mason on 28 January 2010, 21:20:39 UTC
Hit this problem while testing RAID1 failure stuff.  open_bdev_exclusive
returns ERR_PTR(), not NULL.  So change the return value properly.  This
is important if you accidently specify a device that doesn't exist when
trying to add a new device to an array, you will panic the box
dereferencing bdev.

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
(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.
