RE: [Discontig-devel] RE: Cleanup of NUMA support in ACPI

The strange thing is that ia32 doesn't have CONFIG_NUMA, it has CONFIG_MULTIQUAD. Are these equivalent, or more importantly, do they imply the use of SLIT and SRAT?
We do have CONFIG_NUMA when we do discontigmem support (see the patches in akpm's tree). CONFIG_MULTIQUAD is just h/w stuff for the NUMA-Q but we do not really do NUMA aware mem in the main tree. NUMA-Q does not use SLIT/SRAT, but x440 will use them in conjunction with CONFIG_NUMA (it's another ia32 NUMA platform). John Stultz (cc'ed) is working on that.
