From 6b700b5b3c595594c7c0c608cfe903c4e3a0af2d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wei Yang Date: Wed, 1 Apr 2020 21:10:09 -0700 Subject: mm/vmscan.c: remove cpu online notification for now kswapd kernel thread starts either with a CPU affinity set to the full cpu mask of its target node or without any affinity at all if the node is CPUless. There is a cpu hotplug callback (kswapd_cpu_online) that implements an elaborate way to update this mask when a cpu is onlined. It is not really clear whether there is any actual benefit from this scheme. Completely CPU-less NUMA nodes rarely gain a new CPU during runtime. Drop the code for that reason. If there is a real usecase then we can resurrect and simplify the code.
