# 254065 07-Aug-2013 kib

Split the pagequeues per NUMA domains, and split pageademon process
into threads each processing queue in a single domain. The structure
of the pagedaemons and queues is kept intact, most of the changes come
from the need for code to find an owning page queue for given page,
calculated from the segment containing the page.

The tie between NUMA domain and pagedaemon thread/pagequeue split is
rather arbitrary, the multithreaded daemon could be allowed for the
single-domain machines, or one domain might be split into several page
domains, to further increase concurrency.

Right now, each pagedaemon thread tries to reach the global target,
precalculated at the start of the pass. This is not optimal, since it
could cause excessive page deactivation and freeing. The code should
be changed to re-check the global page deficit state in the loop after
some number of iterations.

The pagedaemons reach the quorum before starting the OOM, since one
thread inability to meet the target is normal for split queues. Only
when all pagedaemons fail to produce enough reusable pages, OOM is
started by single selected thread.

Launder is modified to take into account the segments layout with
regard to the region for which cleaning is performed.

Based on the preliminary patch by jeff, sponsored by EMC / Isilon
Storage Division.

# 250601 13-May-2013 attilio

o Add accessor functions to add and remove pages from a specific
freelist.
o Split the pool of free pages queues really by domain and not rely on
definition of VM_RAW_NFREELIST.
o For MAXMEMDOM > 1, wrap the RR allocation logic into a specific
function that is called when calculating the allocation domain.
The RR counter is kept, currently, per-thread.
In the future it is expected that such function evolves in a real
policy decision referee, based on specific informations retrieved by
per-thread and per-vm_object attributes.
o Add the concept of "probed domains" under the form of vm_ndomains.
It is responsibility for every architecture willing to support multiple
memory domains to correctly probe vm_ndomains along with mem_affinity
segments attributes. Those two values are supposed to remain always
consistent.
Please also note that vm_ndomains and td_dom_rr_idx are both int
because segments already store domains as int. Ideally u_int would
have much more sense. Probabilly this should be cleaned up in the
future.
o Apply RR domain selection also to vm_phys_zero_pages_idle().

Revert r250339 as apparently it is more clutter than help.

# 250339 07-May-2013 attilio

Add functions to do ACPI System Locality Information Table parsing
and printing at boot.
For reference on table informations and purposes please review ACPI specs.

# 250338 07-May-2013 attilio

Rename VM_NDOMAIN into MAXMEMDOM and move it into machine/param.h in
order to match the MAXCPU concept. The change should also be useful
for consolidation and consistency.

# 229427 03-Jan-2012 jhb

Fix a few bugs in the SRAT parsing code:
- Actually increment ndomain when building our list of known domains
so that we can properly renumber them to be 0-based and dense.
- If the number of domains exceeds the configured maximum (VM_NDOMAIN),
bail out of processing the SRAT and disable NUMA rather than hitting an
obscure panic later.
- Don't bother parsing the SRAT at all if VM_NDOMAIN is set to 1 to
disable NUMA (the default).

# 226039 05-Oct-2011 jhb

Ignore SRAT memory entries if the memory range does not overlap with an
existing phys_avail[] table. If a hw.physmem setting causes a memory
domain to not be present in phys_avail[], the SRAT table will now be
ignored rather than triggering a panic when a CPU in the missing domain
tries to allocate a page.

# 210620 29-Jul-2010 jhb

When performing a sanity check on the SRAT table to ensure that each
memory domain has an assigned CPU, ignore disabled CPUs. Previously
disabled CPUs were counted as being in domain 0.

# 210552 27-Jul-2010 jhb

Add a parser for the ACPI SRAT table for amd64 and i386. It sets
PCPU(domain) for each CPU and populates a mem_affinity array suitable
for the NUMA support in the physical memory allocator.
