A process may\nhave migrated to another node. Memory was allocated optimally for the prior\ncontext. sys_migrate_pages allows to shift the memory to the new node.\n\nsys_migrate_pages is also useful if the processes available memory nodes have\nchanged through cpuset operations to manually move the processes memory. Paul\nJackson is working on an automated mechanism that will allow an automatic\nmigration if the cpuset of a process is changed. However, a user may decide\nto manually control the migration.\n\nThis implementation is put into the policy layer since it uses concepts and\nfunctions that are also needed for mbind and friends. The patch also provides\na do_migrate_pages function that may be useful for cpusets to automatically\nmove memory. sys_migrate_pages does not modify policies in contrast to Ray\u0027s\nimplementation.\n\nThe current code here is based on the swap based page migration capability and\nthus is not able to preserve the physical layout relative to it containing\nnodeset (which may be a cpuset). When direct page migration becomes available\nthen the implementation needs to be changed to do a isomorphic move of pages\nbetween different nodesets. The current implementation simply evicts all\npages in source nodeset that are not in the target nodeset.\n\nPatch supports ia64, i386 and x86_64.\n\nSigned-off-by: Christoph Lameter \u003cclameter@sgi.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "67207b9664a8d603138ef1556141e6d0a102bea7", "tree": "e98886778be65aeb6625a5f516873bbc5beeb978", "parents": [ "d7a301033f1990188f65abf4fe8e5b90ef0e3888" ], "author": { "name": "Arnd Bergmann", "email": "arnd@arndb.de", "time": "Tue Nov 15 15:53:48 2005 -0500" }, "committer": { "name": "Paul Mackerras", "email": "paulus@samba.org", "time": "Mon Jan 09 14:49:12 2006 +1100" }, "message": "[PATCH] spufs: The SPU file system, base\n\nThis is the current version of the spu file system, used\nfor driving SPEs on the Cell Broadband Engine.\n\nThis release is almost identical to the version for the\n2.6.14 kernel posted earlier, which is available as part\nof the Cell BE Linux distribution from\nhttp://www.bsc.es/projects/deepcomputing/linuxoncell/.\n\nThe first patch provides all the interfaces for running\nspu application, but does not have any support for\ndebugging SPU tasks or for scheduling.
