Subject: [PATCH 1/3] x86: Require x86-64 for automatic NUMA balancing
Date: Mon, 7 Apr 2014 16:10:41 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1396883443-11696-2-git-send-email-mgorman@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1396883443-11696-1-git-send-email-mgorman@suse.de>
Automatic NUMA balancing currently depends on reusing the PROT_NONE
bit which has caused problems on Xen. In preparation for using one of
the unused physical address bits this patch requires x86-64 for automatic
NUMA balancing. 32-bit support for NUMA on x86 is no longer interesting
and the loss of automatic NUMA balancing support should be no surprise.
