Message-ID: <20260108174844.531DCC116C6@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
The patch titled
Subject: mm: numa_memblks: identify the accurate NUMA ID of CFMW
has been added to the -mm mm-new branch. Its filename is
mm-numa_memblks-identify-the-accurate-numa-id-of-cfmw.patch
This patch will shortly appear at

Subject: mm: numa_memblks: identify the accurate NUMA ID of CFMW
Date: Tue, 6 Jan 2026 11:10:42 +0800
In some physical memory layout designs, the address space of CFMW (CXL
Fixed Memory Window) resides between multiple segments of system memory
belonging to the same NUMA node. In numa_cleanup_meminfo, these multiple
segments of system memory are merged into a larger numa_memblk. When
identifying which NUMA node the CFMW belongs to, it may be incorrectly
assigned to the NUMA node of the merged system memory.
Example memory layout:
Physical address space:
0x00000000 - 0x1FFFFFFF System RAM (node0)
0x20000000 - 0x2FFFFFFF CXL CFMW (node2)
0x40000000 - 0x5FFFFFFF System RAM (node0)
0x60000000 - 0x7FFFFFFF System RAM (node1)
After numa_cleanup_meminfo, the two node0 segments are merged into one:
0x00000000 - 0x5FFFFFFF System RAM (node0) // CFMW is inside the range
0x60000000 - 0x7FFFFFFF System RAM (node1)
So the CFMW (0x20000000-0x2FFFFFFF) will be incorrectly assigned to node0.
To address this scenario, accurately identifying the correct NUMA node
can be achieved by checking whether the region belongs to both
numa_meminfo and numa_reserved_meminfo.
