i did not understood how this line change fixes the issue that you
have mentioned (i too not understood fully the issue description)
this array used while mapping node id when secondary cores comes up
when numa_off is set the cpu_to_node_map[cpu] is not used and set to
node0 always( refer function numa_store_cpu_info)..
please provide more details to understand the issue you are facing.
/*
* Set the cpu to node and mem mapping
*/
void numa_store_cpu_info(unsigned int cpu)
{
map_cpu_to_node(cpu, numa_off ? 0 : cpu_to_node_map[cpu]);
}
thanks
