3 What is NUMA?
8 From the hardware perspective, a NUMA system is a computer platform that
17 may not be populated on any given cell.   The cells of the NUMA system are
19 point-to-point link are common types of NUMA system interconnects.  Both of
20 these types of interconnects can be aggregated to create NUMA platforms with
23 For Linux, the NUMA platforms of interest are primarily what is known as Cache
24 Coherent NUMA or ccNUMA systems.   With ccNUMA systems, all memory is visible
32 bandwidths than accesses to memory on other, remote cells.  NUMA platforms
35 Platform vendors don't build NUMA systems just to make software developers'
42 This leads to the Linux software view of a NUMA system:
60 the emulation of additional nodes.  For NUMA emulation, linux will carve up
61 the existing nodes--or the system memory for non-NUMA platforms--into multiple
63 physical memory.  NUMA emluation is useful for testing NUMA kernel and
64 application features on non-NUMA platforms, and as a sort of memory resource
