Add the config options to allow building the kernel with AutoNUMA. If CONFIG_AUTONUMA_DEFAULT_ENABLED is "=y", then /sys/kernel/mm/autonuma/enabled will be equal to 1, and AutoNUMA will be enabled automatically at boot. CONFIG_AUTONUMA currently depends on X86, because no other arch implements the pte/pmd_numa yet and selecting =y would result in a failed build, but this shall be relaxed in the future. Porting AutoNUMA to other archs should be pretty simple. Signed-off-by: Andrea Arcangeli<redacted>

How about having the x86 architecture export a HAVE_AUTONUMA flag, and testing for that?

This could be expanded to list advantages and disadvantages of having autonuma enabled. -- All rights reversed -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@kvack.org.
