Subject: [PATCH 004 of 4] knfsd: Provide sunrpc pool_mode module option
From: Greg Banks <gnb@....com>
Provide a module param "pool_mode" for sunrpc.ko which allows a
sysadmin to choose the mode for mapping NFS thread service pools
to CPUs. Values are:
auto choose a mapping mode heuristically
global (default, same as the pre-2.6.19 code) a single global pool
percpu one pool per CPU
pernode one pool per NUMA node
Note that since 2.6.19 the hardcoded behaviour has been "auto",
this patch makes the default "global".
The pool mode can be changed after boot/modprobe using /sys, if the
NFS and lockd services have been shut down. A useful side effect of
this change is to fix a small memory leak when unloading the module.
