Out of interest, have you tried booting a NUMA enabled kernel to see what dmesg reports? On an old laptop, which definitely has only a single AMD APU, I get: $ dmesg | grep -i NUMA -A2 [ 0.002078] No NUMA configuration found [ 0.002080] Faking a node at [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x000000042effffff] [ 0.002085] NODE_DATA(0) allocated [mem 0x42effc000-0x42effffff]
