Just like traditional autonuma, there will be some workloads that will benefit like workloads with more "static" configurations where hot pages stay hot and cold pages stay cold. If pages come and go from the hot and cold sets, the benefits of this approach will be more limited. The benefits are truly workload-based and *not* hardware-based. We do not believe that there is a viable threshold where certain hardware configurations should have this mechanism enabled while others do not. To be conservative, earlier work defaulted to disable reclaim- based migration and did not include a mechanism to enable it. This proposes extending the existing "zone_reclaim_mode" (now now really node_reclaim_mode) as a method to enable it. We are open to any alternative that allows end users to enable this mechanism or disable it it workload harm is detected (just like traditional autonuma). Once this is enabled page demotion may move data to a NUMA node that does not fall into the cpuset of the allocating process. This could be construed to violate the guarantees of cpusets. However, since this is an opt-in mechanism, the assumption is that anyone enabling it is content to relax the guarantees.
