[PATCH 1/9] sched/numa: Allow runtime enabling/disabling of NUMA balance without SCHED_DEBUG
From: Peter Zijlstra
Date: Fri Mar 26 2021 - 06:44:52 EST
From: Mel Gorman <mgorman@xxxxxxx>
The ability to enable/disable NUMA balancing is not a debugging feature
and should not depend on CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG. For example, machines within
a HPC cluster may disable NUMA balancing temporarily for some jobs and
re-enable it for other jobs without needing to reboot.
This patch removes the dependency on CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG for
kernel.numa_balancing sysctl. The other numa balancing related sysctls
are left as-is because if they need to be tuned then it is more likely
that NUMA balancing needs to be fixed instead.
