Subject: Re: [PATCH 0/1] man/set_mempolicy.2,mbind.2: add MPOL_LOCAL NUMA memory policy documentation
Date: Tue, 4 Oct 2016 03:36:53 -0500 (CDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.DEB.2.20.1610040333050.10814@east.gentwo.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20160927131948.11974-1-kwapulinski.piotr@gmail.com>

Well the difference between MPOL_DEFAULT and MPOL_LOCAL may be confusing.
Mention somewhere in the MPOL_LOCAL description that the policy with
MPOL_DEFAULT reverts to the policy of the process and MPOL_LOCAL to try to
allocate local? Note that MPOL_LOCAL also will not be local if it just
happens that the local node is overallocated. This is usually confusing
for newcomers. The node/zone reclaim must be activated in order to allow
node local reclaim that results in a node local allocation.
