[Xen-devel] [PATCH v2 0/2] xen: vnuma introduction for pv guest

[Elena Ufimtseva <ufimtseva@xxxxxxxxx>]

Xen vnuma introduction.

The patchset introduces vnuma to paravirtualized Xen guests
runnning as domU.
Xen subop hypercall is used to retreive vnuma topology information.
Bases on the retreived topology from Xen, NUMA number of nodes,
memory ranges, distance table and cpumask is being set.
If initialization is incorrect, sets 'dummy' node and unsets
nodemask.
vNUMA topology is constructed by Xen toolstack. Xen patchset is
available at https://git.gitorious.org/xenvnuma/xenvnuma.git:v3.

Example of vnuma enabled pv domain dmesg:
