Package: linux-2.6 Version: 2.6.30-5 Hi,
Please enable CONFIG_NUMA_EMU. CONFIG_NUMA_EMU allows to emulate more memory banks than available on the system, by splitting the existing memory banks, using the numa=fake=DESCR command line option. It is very useful together with cpusets. Take a machine with 8 CPUs, but only 2 memory banks. It would not be possible to create 8 cpusets, with an equal amount of memory each, because memory can only be allocated to cpusets by full memory banks. Using numa=fake=8*1024, it would be possible to split the 8 GB of RAM into 8 shares of 1 GB. There's documentation in Documentation/x86/x86_64/fake-numa-for-cpusets Thank you, -- | Lucas Nussbaum | [email protected] http://www.lucas-nussbaum.net/ | | jabber: [email protected] GPG: 1024D/023B3F4F | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
