[RFC PATCH v4 5/7] mm/demotion: Add support to associate rank with memory tier

Aneesh Kumar K.V
2022-05-27T12:41:27Z

The rank approach allows us to keep memory tier device IDs stable even if there
is a need to change the tier ordering among different memory tiers. e.g. DRAM
nodes with CPUs will always be on memtier1, no matter how many tiers are higher
or lower than these nodes. A new memory tier can be inserted into the tier
hierarchy for a new set of nodes without affecting the node assignment of any
existing memtier, provided that there is enough gap in the rank values for the
new memtier.

The absolute value of "rank" of a memtier doesn't necessarily carry any meaning.
Its value relative to other memtiers decides the level of this memtier in the tier
hierarchy.

For now, This patch supports hardcoded rank values which are 100, 200, & 300 for
memory tiers 0,1 & 2 respectively.

Below is the sysfs interface to read the rank values of memory tier,
/sys/devices/system/memtier/memtierN/rank

This interface is read only for now, write support can be added when there is
a need of flexibility of more number of memory tiers(> 3) with flexibile ordering
requirement among them, rank can be utilized there as rank decides now memory
tiering ordering and not memory tier device ids.
