Subject: [PATCH v8 14/21] libxl: disallow memory relocation when vNUMA is enabled
Date: Mon, 16 Mar 2015 09:52:33 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1426499560-28514-15-git-send-email-wei.liu2@citrix.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1426499560-28514-1-git-send-email-wei.liu2@citrix.com>

Disallow memory relocation when vNUMA is enabled, because relocated
memory ends up off node. Further more, even if we dynamically expand
node coverage in hvmloader, low memory and high memory may reside
in different physical nodes, blindly relocating low memory to high
memory gives us a sub-optimal configuration.

Introduce a function called libxl__vnuma_configured and use it.
