So if I understand what you are saying correctly we default to round-robin on a given node has no CPUs attached to it. I could probably work with that if that is the default behavior instead of adding much of the complexity I already have. The question I have then is what should I do about workqueues that aren't WQ_UNBOUND if they attempt to use queue_work_near? In that case I should be looking for some way to go from a node to a CPU shouldn't I? If so should I look at doing something like wq_select_unbound_cpu that uses the node cpumask instead of the wq_unbound_cpumask? - Alex _______________________________________________ Linux-nvdimm mailing list Linux-nvdimm@lists.01.org https://lists.01.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-nvdimm From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 Return-Path: X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 3.4.0 (2014-02-07) on aws-us-west-2-korg-lkml-1.web.codeaurora.org X-Spam-Level: X-Spam-Status: No, score=-0.8 required=3.0 tests=HEADER_FROM_DIFFERENT_DOMAINS, MAILING_LIST_MULTI,SPF_PASS autolearn=ham autolearn_force=no version=3.4.0 Received: from mail.kernel.org (mail.kernel.org [198.145.29.99]) by smtp.lore.kernel.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7A838C43143 for ; Mon, 1 Oct 2018 21:55:01 +0000 (UTC) Received: from vger.kernel.org (vger.kernel.org [209.132.180.67]) by mail.kernel.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 352A020666 for ; Mon, 1 Oct 2018 21:55:01 +0000 (UTC) DMARC-Filter: OpenDMARC Filter v1.3.2 mail.kernel.org 352A020666 Authentication-Results: mail.kernel.org; dmarc=fail (p=none dis=none) header.from=linux.intel.com Authentication-Results: mail.kernel.org; spf=none smtp.mailfrom=linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org Received: (majordomo@vger.kernel.org) by vger.kernel.org via listexpand id S1726406AbeJBEew (ORCPT ); Tue, 2 Oct 2018 00:34:52 -0400 Received: from mga02.intel.com ([134.134.136.20]:39193 "EHLO mga02.intel.com" rhost-flags-OK-OK-OK-OK) by vger.kernel.org with ESMTP id S1726117AbeJBEew (ORCPT ); Tue, 2 Oct 2018 00:34:52 -0400 X-Amp-Result: SKIPPED(no attachment in message) X-Amp-File-Uploaded: False Received: from orsmga005.jf.intel.com ([10.7.209.41]) by orsmga101.jf.intel.com with ESMTP/TLS/DHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384; 01 Oct 2018 14:54:58 -0700 X-ExtLoop1: 1 X-IronPort-AV: E=Sophos;i="5.54,329,1534834800"; d="scan'208";a="262015182" Received: from ahduyck-mobl.amr.corp.intel.com (HELO [10.7.198.166]) ([10.7.198.166]) by orsmga005.jf.intel.com with ESMTP; 01 Oct 2018 14:54:40 -0700 Subject: Re: [RFC workqueue/driver-core PATCH 1/5] workqueue: Provide queue_work_near to queue work near a given NUMA node To: Tejun Heo Cc: linux-nvdimm@lists.01.org, gregkh@linuxfoundation.org, linux-pm@vger.kernel.org, linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, akpm@linux-foundation.org, len.brown@intel.com, dave.jiang@intel.com, rafael@kernel.org, vishal.l.verma@intel.com, jiangshanlai@gmail.com, pavel@ucw.cz, zwisler@kernel.org, dan.j.williams@intel.com References: <20180926214433.13512.30289.stgit@localhost.localdomain> <20180926215138.13512.33146.stgit@localhost.localdomain> <20180926215307.GA270328@devbig004.ftw2.facebook.com> <9b002bbb-3e6d-9e99-d8f9-36df4306093e@linux.intel.com> <20180926220957.GB270328@devbig004.ftw2.facebook.com> <20181001160142.GE270328@devbig004.ftw2.facebook.com> From: Alexander Duyck Message-ID: <4eebc017-23a2-a26e-095c-66433061a141@linux.intel.com> Date: Mon, 1 Oct 2018 14:54:39 -0700 User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; WOW64; rv:60.0) Gecko/20100101 Thunderbird/60.0 MIME-Version: 1.0 In-Reply-To: <20181001160142.GE270328@devbig004.ftw2.facebook.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8; format=flowed Content-Language: en-US Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org Precedence: bulk List-ID: X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org On 10/1/2018 9:01 AM, Tejun Heo wrote: > Hello, > > On Wed, Sep 26, 2018 at 03:19:21PM -0700, Alexander Duyck wrote: >> On 9/26/2018 3:09 PM, Tejun Heo wrote: >> I could just use queue_work_on probably, but is there any issue if I >> am passing CPU values that are not in the wq_unbound_cpumask?
