Subject: [patch -mm 2/5] x86_64: split remaining fake nodes equally
Date: Thu, 25 Jan 2007 13:37:15 -0800 (PST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64N.0701251333470.13206@attu4.cs.washington.edu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <Pine.LNX.4.64N.0701251332280.13206@attu4.cs.washington.edu>
Extends the numa=fake x86_64 command-line option to split the remaining
system memory into equal-sized nodes.
For example:
numa=fake=2*512,4* gives two 512M nodes and the remaining system
memory is split into four approximately equal
chunks.
