Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/2] mlx5: Use NUMA distance metrics
Date: Sun, 17 Jul 2022 08:22:59 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220717052301.19067-1-tariqt@nvidia.com> (raw)

Hi,

Expose the scheduler's sched_numa_find_closest() function, and use it in
mlx5 device driver.  This replaces the binary NUMA preference (local /
remote) with an improved one that minds the actual distances, so that
remote NUMAs with short distance are preferred over farther ones.

This has significant performance implications when using NUMA-aware
memory allocations, improving the throughput and CPU utilization.

Regards,
Tariq
