| |
Some archs (e.g. x86 and Arm64) don't enable the configuration CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG by default, if this configuration is not enabled when build the kernel image, the SysFS for memory nodes will be missed. This results in perf tool has no chance to catpure the memory nodes information, when perf tool reports the result and detects no memory nodes, it outputs "assertion failed at util/mem2node.c:99".
The output log doesn't give out reason for the failure and users have no clue for how to fix it. This patch changes to use explicit way for warning: it tells user that detected no memory nodes and suggests to enable CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG for kernel building.
