And the original patch description is:

What does the "for now" means in this context? Is the patch
incpmplete somehow and we should expect more code in this
area/theme?
In the patch we have:
+void query_numa_node_mem(uint64_t *node_mem)
+{
+ int i;
+
+ if (nb_numa_nodes <= 0) {
+ return;
+ }
+
+ numa_stat_memory_devices(node_mem);
+ for (i = 0; i < nb_numa_nodes; i++) {
+ node_mem[i] += numa_info[i].node_mem;
+ }
+}
Please note that while the node_mem is a pointer, it is used as
an array. In C, pointers and arrays in this context is the same
thing, but I think it is better to make the fact that it is an
array explicit in the function prototype, to be like this:
+void query_numa_node_mem(uint64_t node_mem[])
(But I don't know how various tools like coverity et al will react
to this. Gcc and any other C compiler should be fine).
The same stands for other function prototype.
I'm not sure this qualifies as -trivial really. Yes the change
does not affect anything but the `info' command, and is rather
simple, but... I'm not sure.
Thanks.
