From: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com>
Excessive migration of pages can hurt the performance of workloads
that span multiple NUMA nodes. However, it turns out that the
p->numa_migrate_deferred knob is a really big hammer, which does
reduce migration rates, but does not actually help performance.
Now that the second stage of the automatic numa balancing code
has stabilized, it is time to replace the simplistic migration
deferral code with something smarter.

CPU locality, rename the memory fault statistics.

Track which nodes NUMA faults are triggered from, in other words
the CPUs on which the NUMA faults happened. This uses a similar
mechanism to what is used to track the memory involved in numa faults.
The next patches use this to build up a bitmap of which nodes a
workload is actively running on.

?
Otherwise the comment is very similar to numa_faults_memory. I'm not
that bothered because the name is descriptive enough.

Should this hunk move to patch 1?
Whether you make the changes or not

In my last review I complained about magic numbers but I see a later
patch has a subject that at least implies it deals with the numbers.

The numa_faults_cpu statistics are used to maintain an active_nodes nodemask
per numa_group. This allows us to be smarter about when to do numa migrations.

Ok, I guess this stops the old group making very different migration
decisions just because one task left the group. That has difficult to
predict consequences so assuming the new group_faults_cpu helper gets used

Use the active_nodes nodemask to make smarter decisions on NUMA migrations.
In order to maximize performance of workloads that do not fit in one NUMA
node, we want to satisfy the following criteria:
1) keep private memory local to each thread
2) avoid excessive NUMA migration of pages
3) distribute shared memory across the active nodes, to
maximize memory bandwidth available to the workload
This patch accomplishes that by implementing the following policy for
NUMA migrations:
1) always migrate on a private fault
2) never migrate to a node that is not in the set of active nodes
for the numa_group
3) always migrate from a node outside of the set of active nodes,
to a node that is in that set
4) within the set of active nodes in the numa_group, only migrate
from a node with more NUMA page faults, to a node with fewer
NUMA page faults, with a 25% margin to avoid ping-ponging
This results in most pages of a workload ending up on the actively
used nodes, with reduced ping-ponging of pages between those nodes.

From: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com>
Tracing the code that decides the active nodes has made it abundantly clear
that the naive implementation of the faults_from code has issues.
Specifically, the garbage collector in some workloads will access orders
of magnitudes more memory than the threads that do all the active work.
This resulted in the node with the garbage collector being marked the only
active node in the group.
This issue is avoided if we weigh the statistics by CPU use of each task in
the numa group, instead of by how many faults each thread has occurred.
To achieve this, we normalize the number of faults to the fraction of faults
that occurred on each node, and then multiply that fraction by the fraction
of CPU time the task has used since the last time task_numa_placement was
invoked.
This way the nodes in the active node mask will be the ones where the tasks
from the numa group are most actively running, and the influence of eg. the
garbage collector and other do-little threads is properly minimized.
On a 4 node system, using CPU use statistics calculated over a longer interval
results in about 1% fewer page migrations with two 32-warehouse specjbb runs
on a 4 node system, and about 5% fewer page migrations, as well as 1% better
throughput, with two 8-warehouse specjbb runs, as compared with the shorter
term statistics kept by the scheduler.

From: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com>
The current code in task_numa_placement calculates the difference
between the old and the new value, but also temporarily stores half
of the old value in the per-process variables.
The NUMA balancing code looks at those per-process variables, and
having other tasks temporarily see halved statistics could lead to
unwanted numa migrations. This can be avoided by doing all the math
in local variables.
This change also simplifies the code a little.

We track both the node of the memory after a NUMA fault, and the node
of the CPU on which the fault happened. Rename the local variables in
task_numa_fault to make things more explicit.
