Description: Enable/disable demoting pages during reclaim
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Page migration during reclaim is intended for systems
|
||
|
|
with tiered memory configurations. These systems have
|
||
|
|
multiple types of memory with varied performance
|
||
|
|
characteristics instead of plain NUMA systems where
|
||
|
|
the same kind of memory is found at varied distances.
|
||
|
|
Allowing page migration during reclaim enables these
|
||
|
|
systems to migrate pages from fast tiers to slow tiers
|
||
|
|
when the fast tier is under pressure. This migration
|
||
|
|
is performed before swap. It may move data to a NUMA
|
||
|
|
node that does not fall into the cpuset of the
|
||
|
|
allocating process which might be construed to violate
|
||
|
|
the guarantees of cpusets. This should not be enabled
|
||
|
|
on systems which need strict cpuset location
|
||
|
|
guarantees.
