Subject: sched/numa: Favor placing a task on the preferred node
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2c8a50aa873a7e1d6cc0913362051ff9912dc6ca;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

sched/numa: Favor placing a task on the preferred node

A tasks preferred node is selected based on the number of faults
recorded for a node but the actual task_numa_migate() conducts a global
search regardless of the preferred nid. This patch checks if the
preferred nid has capacity and if so, searches for a CPU within that
node. This avoids a global search when the preferred node is not
overloaded.
