Enable NUMA (Non Uniform Memory Access) support.

|
|
The kernel will try to allocate memory used by a CPU on the
|
|
|
local memory controller of the CPU and add some more
|
|
|
NUMA awareness to the kernel.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- For 32-bit this is currently highly experimental and should be only
|
|
|
- used for kernel development. It might also cause boot failures.
|
|
|
- For 64-bit this is recommended on all multiprocessor Opteron systems.
|
|
|
- If the system is EM64T, you should say N unless your system is
|
|
|
- EM64T NUMA.
|
|
|
+ For 64-bit this is recommended if the system is Intel Core 7i
|
|
|
+ (or later), AMD Opteron, or EM64T NUMA.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ For 32-bit this is only needed on (rare) 32-bit-only platforms
|
|
|
+ that support NUMA topologies, such as NUMAQ / Summit, or if you
|
|
|
+ boot a 32-bit kernel on a 64-bit NUMA platform.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Otherwise, you should say N.
