David Rientjes 8df5bb34de x86, numa: Add fixed node size option for numa emulation ... 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.
