Is there a particular reason you made the start and end members 32bit only?
This effectively limits the amount of memory to 16TB, which is not that
far from being used (if not larger NUMA machines already shipping with
this amount of memory).
So can you push these variables to 64 bits?
+struct xen_domain_numa_info {
+ uint8_t version; /* Interface version */
+ uint8_t type; /* VM memory allocation scheme (see above) */
+
+ uint8_t nr_vcpus;
+ uint8_t nr_vnodes;
The same for here. I'd like to see at least nr_vcpus to be prepared for
more than 256 vCPUs.
Please keep in mind that if Dom0 is also NUMA aware, by default the
whole host resources are first given to Dom0, so the NUMA info should
not be restricted to the size of a typical guest only.
Regards,
Andre.
