SubjectRe: [PATCH v2 3/3] mm/page_alloc: Keep memoryless cpuless node 0 offline
* David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> [2020-05-08 15:42:12]:

Hi David,

Thanks for the steps to tryout.

I tried

qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -m 4G,maxmem=20G,slots=2 -smp sockets=2,cores=2 -cpu host -numa node,nodeid=0,cpus=0-3,mem=4G -numa node,nodeid=1,mem=0G -vga none -nographic -serial mon:stdio /home/srikar/fedora.qcow2

and the resulting guest was.

Even without my patch, both the combinations, I am still unable to see a
cpuless, memoryless node being online. And the interesting part being even
if I mark node 0 as cpuless,memoryless and node 1 as actual node, the system
somewhere marks node 0 as the actual node.
