[RFC 14/15] slub: Enable move _all_ objects to node
From: Tobin C. Harding
Date: Thu Mar 07 2019 - 23:15:55 EST
We have just implemented Slab Movable Objects (object migration).
Currently object migration is used to defrag a cache. On NUMA systems
it would be nice to be able to move objects and control the source and
destination nodes.
Add CONFIG_SMO_NODE to guard this feature. CONFIG_SMO_NODE depends on
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG because we use the full list. Leave it like this for
the RFC because the patch will be less cluttered to review, separate
full list out of CONFIG_DEBUG before doing a PATCH version.
Implement moving all objects (including those in full slabs) to a
specific node. Expose this functionality to userspace via a sysfs entry.
Add sysfs entry:
/sysfs/kernel/slab/<cache>/move
With this users get access to the following functionality:
- Move all objects to specified node.
echo "N1" > move
- Move all objects from specified node to other specified
node (from N1 -> to N2):
echo "N1 N2" > move
This also enables shrinking slabs on a specific node:
echo "N1 N1" > move
