    x86, numa: Add fixed node size option for numa emulation · 8df5bb34
    David Rientjes 提交于
    numa=fake=N specifies the number of fake nodes, N, to partition the
    system into and then allocates them by interleaving over physical nodes.
    This requires knowledge of the system capacity when attempting to
    allocate nodes of a certain size: either very large nodes to benchmark
    scalability of code that operates on individual nodes, or very small
    nodes to find bugs in the VM.
    
    This patch introduces numa=fake=<size>[MG] so it is possible to specify
    the size of each node to allocate.  When used, nodes of the size
    specified will be allocated and interleaved over the set of physical
    nodes.
    
    FAKE_NODE_MIN_SIZE was also moved to the more-appropriate
    include/asm/numa_64.h.
