In the current design, a numa-node is made online only if that node is attached to cpu/memory. With this design, if any PCI/IO device is found to be attached to a numa-node which is not online then the numa-node id of the corresponding PCI/IO device is set to NUMA_NO_NODE(-1). This design may negatively impact the performance of PCIe device if the numa-node assigned to PCIe device is -1 because in such case we may not be able to accurately calculate the distance between two nodes. The multi-controller NVMe PCIe disk has an issue with calculating the node distance if the PCIe NVMe controller is attached to a PCI host bridge which has numa-node id value set to NUMA_NO_NODE. This patch helps fix this ensuring that a cpu/memory less numa node is made online if it's attached to PCI host bridge. Signed-off-by: Nilay Shroff <ni...@linux.ibm.com>
Thanks for fixing this. Looks good to me. Reviewed-by: Krishna Kumar (krish...@linux.ibm.com)
