.IX Title "xlcpupool.cfg 5"
.TH xlcpupool.cfg 5 "2017-09-05" "4.4.1" "Xen"
.\" For nroff, turn off justification.  Always turn off hyphenation; it makes
.\" way too many mistakes in technical documents.
.if n .ad l

.SH "NAME"
xlcpupool.cfg \- XL Cpupool Configuration File Syntax
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
.Vb 1
\& /etc/xen/xlcpupool
.Ve
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
To create a Cpupool with xl requires the provision of a cpupool config
file.  Typically these live in `/etc/xen/CPUPOOL.cfg` where \s-1CPUPOOL\s0 is
the name of the cpupool.
.SH "SYNTAX"
.IX Header "SYNTAX"
A cpupool config file consists of a series of \f(CW\*(C`KEY=VALUE\*(C'\fR pairs.
.PP
A value \f(CW\*(C`VALUE\*(C'\fR is one of:
.ie n .IP "\fB""\s-1STRING""\s0\fR" 4
.el .IP "\fB``\s-1STRING''\s0\fR" 4
.IX Item "STRING"
A string, surrounded by either single or double quotes.
.IP "\fB\s-1NUMBER\s0\fR" 4
.IX Item "NUMBER"
A number, in either decimal, octal (using a \f(CW0\fR prefix) or
hexadecimal (using an \f(CW\*(C`0x\*(C'\fR prefix).
.IP "\fB[ \s-1VALUE, VALUE, ... \s0]\fR" 4
.IX Item "[ VALUE, VALUE, ... ]"
A list of \f(CW\*(C`VALUES\*(C'\fR of the above types. Lists are homogeneous and are
not nested.
.PP
The semantics of each \f(CW\*(C`KEY\*(C'\fR defines which form of \f(CW\*(C`VALUE\*(C'\fR is required.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.IX Header "OPTIONS"
.SS "Mandatory Configuration Items"
.IX Subsection "Mandatory Configuration Items"
The following key is mandatory for any cpupool:
.ie n .IP "\fBname=""\s-1NAME""\s0\fR" 4
.el .IP "\fBname=``\s-1NAME''\s0\fR" 4
.IX Item "name=NAME"
Specifies the name of the cpupool.  Names of cpupools existing on a
single host must be unique.
.SS "Optional Configuration Items"
.IX Subsection "Optional Configuration Items"
The following options apply to guests of any type.
.ie n .IP "\fBsched=""\s-1SCHED""\s0\fR" 4
.el .IP "\fBsched=``\s-1SCHED''\s0\fR" 4
.IX Item "sched=SCHED"
Specifies the scheduler which is used for the cpupool. Valid
values for \f(CW\*(C`SCHED\*(C'\fR are:
.RS 4
.IP "\fBcredit\fR" 4
.IX Item "credit"
the credit scheduler
.IP "\fBcredit2\fR" 4
.IX Item "credit2"
the credit2 scheduler
.IP "\fBsedf\fR" 4
.IX Item "sedf"
the \s-1SEDF\s0 scheduler
.RE
.RS 4
.Sp
The default scheduler is the one used for \f(CW\*(C`Pool\-0\*(C'\fR specified as
boot parameter of the hypervisor.
.RE
.ie n .IP "\fBnodes=""\s-1NODES""\s0\fR" 4
.el .IP "\fBnodes=``\s-1NODES''\s0\fR" 4
.IX Item "nodes=NODES"
Specifies the cpus of the NUMA-nodes given in \f(CW\*(C`NODES\*(C'\fR (an integer or
a list of integers) to be member of the cpupool. The free cpus in the
specified nodes are allocated in the new cpupool.
.ie n .IP "\fBcpus=""\s-1CPUS""\s0\fR" 4
.el .IP "\fBcpus=``\s-1CPUS''\s0\fR" 4
.IX Item "cpus=CPUS"
The specified \f(CW\*(C`CPUS\*(C'\fR are allocated in the new cpupool. All cpus must
be free. Must not be specified together with \fBnodes\fR.
.Sp
If neither \fBnodes\fR nor \fBcpus\fR are specified only the first free cpu
found will be allocated in the new cpupool.
