NAME      

       get_mempolicy - retrieve NUMA memory policy for a thread

SYNOPSIS      

       #include <numaif.h>

       long get_mempolicy(int *mode, unsigned long *nodemask,
                         unsigned long maxnode, void *addr,
                         unsigned long flags);
       Link with -lnuma.

       Note: There is no glibc wrapper for this system call; see NOTES.

DESCRIPTION       

       get_mempolicy() retrieves the NUMA policy of the calling thread
       or of a memory address, depending on the setting of flags.

       A NUMA machine has different memory controllers with different
       distances to specific CPUs.  The memory policy defines from which
       node memory is allocated for the thread.

       If flags is specified as 0, then information about the calling
       thread's default policy (as set by set_mempolicy(2)) is returned,
       in the buffers pointed to by mode and nodemask.  The value
       returned in these arguments may be used to restore the thread's
       policy to its state at the time of the call to get_mempolicy()
       using set_mempolicy(2).  When flags is 0, addr must be specified
       as NULL.

       If flags specifies MPOL_F_MEMS_ALLOWED (available since Linux
       2.6.24), the mode argument is ignored and the set of nodes
       (memories) that the thread is allowed to specify in subsequent
       calls to mbind(2) or set_mempolicy(2) (in the absence of any mode
       flags) is returned in nodemask.  It is not permitted to combine
       MPOL_F_MEMS_ALLOWED with either MPOL_F_ADDR or MPOL_F_NODE.

       If flags specifies MPOL_F_ADDR, then information is returned
       about the policy governing the memory address given in addr.
       This policy may be different from the thread's default policy if
       mbind(2) or one of the helper functions described in numa(3) has
       been used to establish a policy for the memory range containing
       addr.

       If the mode argument is not NULL, then get_mempolicy() will store
       the policy mode and any optional mode flags of the requested NUMA
       policy in the location pointed to by this argument.  If nodemask
       is not NULL, then the nodemask associated with the policy will be
       stored in the location pointed to by this argument.  maxnode
       specifies the number of node IDs that can be stored into
       nodemask—that is, the maximum node ID plus one.  The value
       specified by maxnode is always rounded to a multiple of
       sizeof(unsigned long)*8.

       If flags specifies both MPOL_F_NODE and MPOL_F_ADDR,
       get_mempolicy() will return the node ID of the node on which the
       address addr is allocated into the location pointed to by mode.
       If no page has yet been allocated for the specified address,
       get_mempolicy() will allocate a page as if the thread had
       performed a read (load) access to that address, and return the ID
       of the node where that page was allocated.

       If flags specifies MPOL_F_NODE, but not MPOL_F_ADDR, and the
       thread's current policy is MPOL_INTERLEAVE, then get_mempolicy()
       will return in the location pointed to by a non-NULL mode
       argument, the node ID of the next node that will be used for
       interleaving of internal kernel pages allocated on behalf of the
       thread.  These allocations include pages for memory-mapped files
       in process memory ranges mapped using the mmap(2) call with the
       MAP_PRIVATE flag for read accesses, and in memory ranges mapped
       with the MAP_SHARED flag for all accesses.

       Other flag values are reserved.

       For an overview of the possible policies see set_mempolicy(2).

RETURN VALUE  

       On success, get_mempolicy() returns 0; on error, -1 is returned
       and errno is set to indicate the error.

ERRORS      

       EFAULT Part of all of the memory range specified by nodemask and
              maxnode points outside your accessible address space.

       EINVAL The value specified by maxnode is less than the number of
              node IDs supported by the system.  Or flags specified
              values other than MPOL_F_NODE or MPOL_F_ADDR; or flags
              specified MPOL_F_ADDR and addr is NULL, or flags did not
              specify MPOL_F_ADDR and addr is not NULL.  Or, flags
              specified MPOL_F_NODE but not MPOL_F_ADDR and the current
              thread policy is not MPOL_INTERLEAVE.  Or, flags specified
              MPOL_F_MEMS_ALLOWED with either MPOL_F_ADDR or
              MPOL_F_NODE.  (And there are other EINVAL cases.)

SET_MEMPOLICY(2)        Linux Programmer's Manual       SET_MEMPOLICY(2)

NAME     

       set_mempolicy - set default NUMA memory policy for a thread and
       its children

SYNOPSIS      

       #include <numaif.h>

       long set_mempolicy(int mode, const unsigned long *nodemask,
                          unsigned long maxnode);
       Link with -lnuma.

DESCRIPTION      

       set_mempolicy() sets the NUMA memory policy of the calling
       thread, which consists of a policy mode and zero or more nodes,
       to the values specified by the mode, nodemask, and maxnode
       arguments.

       A NUMA machine has different memory controllers with different
       distances to specific CPUs.  The memory policy defines from which
       node memory is allocated for the thread.

       This system call defines the default policy for the thread.  The
       thread policy governs allocation of pages in the process's
       address space outside of memory ranges controlled by a more
       specific policy set by mbind(2).  The thread default policy also
       controls allocation of any pages for memory-mapped files mapped
       using the mmap(2) call with the MAP_PRIVATE flag and that are
       only read (loaded) from by the thread and of memory-mapped files
       mapped using the mmap(2) call with the MAP_SHARED flag,
       regardless of the access type.  The policy is applied only when a
       new page is allocated for the thread.  For anonymous memory this
       is when the page is first touched by the thread.

       The mode argument must specify one of MPOL_DEFAULT, MPOL_BIND,
       MPOL_INTERLEAVE, MPOL_PREFERRED, or MPOL_LOCAL (which are
       described in detail below).  All modes except MPOL_DEFAULT
       require the caller to specify the node or nodes to which the mode
       applies, via the nodemask argument.

       The mode argument may also include an optional mode flag.  The
       supported mode flags are:

       MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES (since Linux 2.6.26)
              A nonempty nodemask specifies physical node IDs.  Linux
              will not remap the nodemask when the process moves to a
              different cpuset context, nor when the set of nodes
              allowed by the process's current cpuset context changes.

       MPOL_F_RELATIVE_NODES (since Linux 2.6.26)
              A nonempty nodemask specifies node IDs that are relative
              to the set of node IDs allowed by the process's current
              cpuset.

       nodemask points to a bit mask of node IDs that contains up to
       maxnode bits.  The bit mask size is rounded to the next multiple
       of sizeof(unsigned long), but the kernel will use bits only up to
       maxnode.  A NULL value of nodemask or a maxnode value of zero
       specifies the empty set of nodes.  If the value of maxnode is
       zero, the nodemask argument is ignored.

       Where a nodemask is required, it must contain at least one node
       that is on-line, allowed by the process's current cpuset context,
       (unless the MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES mode flag is specified), and
       contains memory.  If the MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES is set in mode and a
       required nodemask contains no nodes that are allowed by the
       process's current cpuset context, the memory policy reverts to
       local allocation.  This effectively overrides the specified
       policy until the process's cpuset context includes one or more of
       the nodes specified by nodemask.

       The mode argument must include one of the following values:

       MPOL_DEFAULT
              This mode specifies that any nondefault thread memory
              policy be removed, so that the memory policy "falls back"
              to the system default policy.  The system default policy
              is "local allocation"—that is, allocate memory on the node
              of the CPU that triggered the allocation.  nodemask must
              be specified as NULL.  If the "local node" contains no
              free memory, the system will attempt to allocate memory
              from a "near by" node.

       MPOL_BIND
              This mode defines a strict policy that restricts memory
              allocation to the nodes specified in nodemask.  If
              nodemask specifies more than one node, page allocations
              will come from the node with the lowest numeric node ID
              first, until that node contains no free memory.
              Allocations will then come from the node with the next
              highest node ID specified in nodemask and so forth, until
              none of the specified nodes contain free memory.  Pages
              will not be allocated from any node not specified in the
              nodemask.

       MPOL_INTERLEAVE
              This mode interleaves page allocations across the nodes
              specified in nodemask in numeric node ID order.  This
              optimizes for bandwidth instead of latency by spreading
              out pages and memory accesses to those pages across
              multiple nodes.  However, accesses to a single page will
              still be limited to the memory bandwidth of a single node.

       MPOL_PREFERRED
              This mode sets the preferred node for allocation.  The
              kernel will try to allocate pages from this node first and
              fall back to "near by" nodes if the preferred node is low
              on free memory.  If nodemask specifies more than one node
              ID, the first node in the mask will be selected as the
              preferred node.  If the nodemask and maxnode arguments
              specify the empty set, then the policy specifies "local
              allocation" (like the system default policy discussed
              above).

       MPOL_LOCAL (since Linux 3.8)
              This mode specifies "local allocation"; the memory is
              allocated on the node of the CPU that triggered the
              allocation (the "local node").  The nodemask and maxnode
              arguments must specify the empty set.  If the "local node"
              is low on free memory, the kernel will try to allocate
              memory from other nodes.  The kernel will allocate memory
              from the "local node" whenever memory for this node is
              available.  If the "local node" is not allowed by the
              process's current cpuset context, the kernel will try to
              allocate memory from other nodes.  The kernel will
              allocate memory from the "local node" whenever it becomes
              allowed by the process's current cpuset context.

       The thread memory policy is preserved across an execve(2), and is
       inherited by child threads created using fork(2) or clone(2).

RETURN VALUE      

       On success, set_mempolicy() returns 0; on error, -1 is returned
       and errno is set to indicate the error.

ERRORS      

       EFAULT Part of all of the memory range specified by nodemask and
              maxnode points outside your accessible address space.

       EINVAL mode is invalid.  Or, mode is MPOL_DEFAULT and nodemask is
              nonempty, or mode is MPOL_BIND or MPOL_INTERLEAVE and
              nodemask is empty.  Or, maxnode specifies more than a page
              worth of bits.  Or, nodemask specifies one or more node
              IDs that are greater than the maximum supported node ID.
              Or, none of the node IDs specified by nodemask are on-line
              and allowed by the process's current cpuset context, or
              none of the specified nodes contain memory.  Or, the mode
              argument specified both MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES and
              MPOL_F_RELATIVE_NODES.

       ENOMEM Insufficient kernel memory was available.

VERSIONS       

       The set_mempolicy() system call was added to the Linux kernel in
       version 2.6.7.

CONFORMING TO 

       This system call is Linux-specific.

NOTES    

       Memory policy is not remembered if the page is swapped out.  When
       such a page is paged back in, it will use the policy of the
       thread or memory range that is in effect at the time the page is
       allocated.

MBIND(2)                Linux Programmer's Manual               MBIND(2)

NAME    

       mbind - set memory policy for a memory range

SYNOPSIS   

      #include <numaif.h>

       long mbind(void *addr, unsigned long len, int mode,
                  const unsigned long *nodemask, unsigned long maxnode,
                  unsigned int flags);
        Link with -lnuma.

       Note: There is no glibc wrapper for this system call; see NOTES.

DESCRIPTION   

       mbind() sets the NUMA memory policy, which consists of a policy
       mode and zero or more nodes, for the memory range starting with
       addr and continuing for len bytes.  The memory policy defines
       from which node memory is allocated.

       If the memory range specified by the addr and len arguments
       includes an "anonymous" region of memory—that is a region of
       memory created using the mmap(2) system call with the
       MAP_ANONYMOUS—or a memory-mapped file, mapped using the mmap(2)
       system call with the MAP_PRIVATE flag, pages will be allocated
       only according to the specified policy when the application
       writes (stores) to the page.  For anonymous regions, an initial
       read access will use a shared page in the kernel containing all
       zeros.  For a file mapped with MAP_PRIVATE, an initial read
       access will allocate pages according to the memory policy of the
       thread that causes the page to be allocated.  This may not be the
       thread that called mbind().

       The specified policy will be ignored for any MAP_SHARED mappings
       in the specified memory range.  Rather the pages will be
       allocated according to the memory policy of the thread that
       caused the page to be allocated.  Again, this may not be the
       thread that called mbind().

       If the specified memory range includes a shared memory region
       created using the shmget(2) system call and attached using the
       shmat(2) system call, pages allocated for the anonymous or shared
       memory region will be allocated according to the policy
       specified, regardless of which process attached to the shared
       memory segment causes the allocation.  If, however, the shared
       memory region was created with the SHM_HUGETLB flag, the huge
       pages will be allocated according to the policy specified only if
       the page allocation is caused by the process that calls mbind()
       for that region.

       By default, mbind() has an effect only for new allocations; if
       the pages inside the range have been already touched before
       setting the policy, then the policy has no effect.  This default
       behavior may be overridden by the MPOL_MF_MOVE and
       MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL flags described below.

       The mode argument must specify one of MPOL_DEFAULT, MPOL_BIND,
       MPOL_INTERLEAVE, MPOL_PREFERRED, or MPOL_LOCAL (which are
       described in detail below).  All policy modes except MPOL_DEFAULT
       require the caller to specify the node or nodes to which the mode
       applies, via the nodemask argument.

       The mode argument may also include an optional mode flag.  The
       supported mode flags are:

       MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES (since Linux-2.6.26)
              A nonempty nodemask specifies physical node IDs.  Linux
              does not remap the nodemask when the thread moves to a
              different cpuset context, nor when the set of nodes
              allowed by the thread's current cpuset context changes.

       MPOL_F_RELATIVE_NODES (since Linux-2.6.26)
              A nonempty nodemask specifies node IDs that are relative
              to the set of node IDs allowed by the thread's current
              cpuset.

       nodemask points to a bit mask of nodes containing up to maxnode
       bits.  The bit mask size is rounded to the next multiple of
       sizeof(unsigned long), but the kernel will use bits only up to
       maxnode.  A NULL value of nodemask or a maxnode value of zero
       specifies the empty set of nodes.  If the value of maxnode is
       zero, the nodemask argument is ignored.  Where a nodemask is
       required, it must contain at least one node that is on-line,
       allowed by the thread's current cpuset context (unless the
       MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES mode flag is specified), and contains memory.

       The mode argument must include one of the following values:

       MPOL_DEFAULT
              This mode requests that any nondefault policy be removed,
              restoring default behavior.  When applied to a range of
              memory via mbind(), this means to use the thread memory
              policy, which may have been set with set_mempolicy(2).  If
              the mode of the thread memory policy is also MPOL_DEFAULT,
              the system-wide default policy will be used.  The system-
              wide default policy allocates pages on the node of the CPU
              that triggers the allocation.  For MPOL_DEFAULT, the
              nodemask and maxnode arguments must be specify the empty
              set of nodes.

       MPOL_BIND
              This mode specifies a strict policy that restricts memory
              allocation to the nodes specified in nodemask.  If
              nodemask specifies more than one node, page allocations
              will come from the node with sufficient free memory that
              is closest to the node where the allocation takes place.
              Pages will not be allocated from any node not specified in
              the IR nodemask .  (Before Linux 2.6.26, page allocations
              came from the node with the lowest numeric node ID first,
              until that node contained no free memory.  Allocations
              then came from the node with the next highest node ID
              specified in nodemask and so forth, until none of the
              specified nodes contained free memory.)

       MPOL_INTERLEAVE(交错)
              This mode specifies that page allocations be interleaved
              across the set of nodes specified in nodemask.  This
              optimizes for bandwidth instead of latency by spreading
              out pages and memory accesses to those pages across
              multiple nodes.  To be effective the memory area should be
              fairly large, at least 1 MB or bigger with a fairly
              uniform access pattern.  Accesses to a single page of the
              area will still be limited to the memory bandwidth of a
              single node.

       MPOL_PREFERRED(首选的;优先;更喜欢)
              This mode sets the preferred node for allocation.  The
              kernel will try to allocate pages from this node first and
              fall back to other nodes if the preferred nodes is low on
              free memory.  If nodemask specifies more than one node ID,
              the first node in the mask will be selected as the
              preferred node.  If the nodemask and maxnode arguments
              specify the empty set, then the memory is allocated on the
              node of the CPU that triggered the allocation.

       MPOL_LOCAL (since Linux 3.8)
              This mode specifies "local allocation"; the memory is
              allocated on the node of the CPU that triggered the
              allocation (the "local node").  The nodemask and maxnode
              arguments must specify the empty set.  If the "local node"
              is low on free memory, the kernel will try to allocate
              memory from other nodes.  The kernel will allocate memory
              from the "local node" whenever memory for this node is
              available.  If the "local node" is not allowed by the
              thread's current cpuset context, the kernel will try to
              allocate memory from other nodes.  The kernel will
              allocate memory from the "local node" whenever it becomes
              allowed by the thread's current cpuset context.  By
              contrast, MPOL_DEFAULT reverts to the memory policy of the
              thread (which may be set via set_mempolicy(2)); that
              policy may be something other than "local allocation".

       If MPOL_MF_STRICT is passed in flags and mode is not
       MPOL_DEFAULT, then the call fails with the error EIO if the
       existing pages in the memory range don't follow the policy.

       If MPOL_MF_MOVE is specified in flags, then the kernel will
       attempt to move all the existing pages in the memory range so
       that they follow the policy.  Pages that are shared with other
       processes will not be moved.  If MPOL_MF_STRICT is also
       specified, then the call fails with the error EIO if some pages
       could not be moved.

       If MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL is passed in flags, then the kernel will
       attempt to move all existing pages in the memory range regardless
       of whether other processes use the pages.  The calling thread
       must be privileged (CAP_SYS_NICE) to use this flag.  If
       MPOL_MF_STRICT is also specified, then the call fails with the
       error EIO if some pages could not be moved.

RETURN VALUE   

       On success, mbind() returns 0; on error, -1 is returned and errno
       is set to indicate the error.

ERRORS    

       EFAULT Part or all of the memory range specified by nodemask and
              maxnode points outside your accessible address space.  Or,
              there was an unmapped hole in the specified memory range
              specified by addr and len.

       EINVAL An invalid value was specified for flags or mode; or addr
              + len was less than addr; or addr is not a multiple of the
              system page size.  Or, mode is MPOL_DEFAULT and nodemask
              specified a nonempty set; or mode is MPOL_BIND or
              MPOL_INTERLEAVE and nodemask is empty.  Or, maxnode
              exceeds a kernel-imposed limit.  Or, nodemask specifies
              one or more node IDs that are greater than the maximum
              supported node ID.  Or, none of the node IDs specified by
              nodemask are on-line and allowed by the thread's current
              cpuset context, or none of the specified nodes contain
              memory.  Or, the mode argument specified both
              MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES and MPOL_F_RELATIVE_NODES.

       EIO    MPOL_MF_STRICT was specified and an existing page was
              already on a node that does not follow the policy; or
              MPOL_MF_MOVE or MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL was specified and the
              kernel was unable to move all existing pages in the range.

       ENOMEM Insufficient kernel memory was available.

       EPERM  The flags argument included the MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL flag and
              the caller does not have the CAP_SYS_NICE privilege.

VERSIONS   

       The mbind() system call was added to the Linux kernel in version
       2.6.7.

CONFORMING TO   

       This system call is Linux-specific.

NOTES 

       Glibc does not provide a wrapper for this system call.  For
       information on library support, see numa(7).

       NUMA policy is not supported on a memory-mapped file range that
       was mapped with the MAP_SHARED flag.

       The MPOL_DEFAULT mode can have different effects for mbind() and
       set_mempolicy(2).  When MPOL_DEFAULT is specified for
       set_mempolicy(2), the thread's memory policy reverts to the
       system default policy or local allocation.  When MPOL_DEFAULT is
       specified for a range of memory using mbind(), any pages
       subsequently allocated for that range will use the thread's
       memory policy, as set by set_mempolicy(2).  This effectively
       removes the explicit policy from the specified range, "falling
       back" to a possibly nondefault policy.  To select explicit "local
       allocation" for a memory range, specify a mode of MPOL_LOCAL or
       MPOL_PREFERRED with an empty set of nodes.  This method will work
       for set_mempolicy(2), as well.

       Support for huge page policy was added with 2.6.16.  For
       interleave policy to be effective on huge page mappings the
       policied memory needs to be tens of megabytes or larger.

       Before Linux 5.7.  MPOL_MF_STRICT was ignored on huge page
       mappings.

       MPOL_MF_MOVE and MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL are available only on Linux
       2.6.16 and later.

DESCRIPTION 

       The libnuma library offers a simple programming interface to the
       NUMA (Non Uniform Memory Access) policy supported by the Linux
       kernel. On a NUMA architecture some memory areas have different
       latency or bandwidth than others.

       Available policies are page interleaving (i.e., allocate in a
       round-robin fashion from all, or a subset, of the nodes on the
       system), preferred node allocation (i.e., preferably allocate on
       a particular node), local allocation (i.e., allocate on the node
       on which the task is currently executing), or allocation only on
       specific nodes (i.e., allocate on some subset of the available
       nodes).  It is also possible to bind tasks to specific nodes.

       Numa memory allocation policy may be specified as a per-task
       attribute, that is inherited by children tasks and processes, or
       as an attribute of a range of process virtual address space.
       Numa memory policies specified for a range of virtual address
       space are shared by all tasks in the process.  Furthermore,
       memory policies specified for a range of a shared memory attached
       using shmat(2) or mmap(2) from shmfs/hugetlbfs are shared by all
       processes that attach to that region.  Memory policies for shared
       disk backed file mappings are currently ignored.

       The default memory allocation policy for tasks and all memory
       range is local allocation.  This assumes that no ancestor has
       installed a non-default policy.

       For setting a specific policy globally for all memory allocations
       in a process and its children it is easiest to start it with the
       numactl(8) utility. For more finegrained policy inside an
       application this library can be used.

       All numa memory allocation policy only takes effect when a page
       is actually faulted into the address space of a process by
       accessing it. The numa_alloc_* functions take care of this
       automatically.

       A node is defined as an area where all memory has the same speed
       as seen from a particular CPU.  A node can contain multiple CPUs.
       Caches are ignored for this definition.

       Most functions in this library are only concerned about numa
       nodes and their memory.  The exceptions to this are:
       numa_node_to_cpus(), numa_node_to_cpu_update(),
       numa_node_of_cpu(), numa_bind(), numa_run_on_node(),
       numa_run_on_node_mask(), numa_run_on_node_mask_all(), and
       numa_get_run_node_mask().  These functions deal with the CPUs
       associated with numa nodes.  See the descriptions below for more
       information.

       Some of these functions accept or return a pointer to struct
       bitmask.  A struct bitmask controls a bit map of arbitrary length
       containing a bit representation of nodes.  The predefined
       variable numa_all_nodes_ptr points to a bit mask that has all
       available nodes set; numa_no_nodes_ptr points to the empty set.

       Before any other calls in this library can be used
       numa_available() must be called. If it returns -1, all other
       functions in this library are undefined.

       numa_max_possible_node() returns the number of the highest
       possible node in a system.  In other words, the size of a kernel
       type nodemask_t (in bits) minus 1.  This number can be gotten by
       calling numa_num_possible_nodes() and subtracting 1.

       numa_num_possible_nodes() returns the size of kernel's node mask
       (kernel type nodemask_t).  In other words, large enough to
       represent the maximum number of nodes that the kernel can handle.
       This will match the kernel's MAX_NUMNODES value.  This count is
       derived from /proc/self/status, field Mems_allowed.

       numa_max_node() returns the highest node number available on the
       current system.  (See the node numbers in
       /sys/devices/system/node/ ).  Also see
       numa_num_configured_nodes().

       numa_num_configured_nodes() returns the number of memory nodes in
       the system. This count includes any nodes that are currently
       disabled. This count is derived from the node numbers in
       /sys/devices/system/node. (Depends on the kernel being configured
       with /sys (CONFIG_SYSFS)).

       numa_get_mems_allowed() returns the mask of nodes from which the
       process is allowed to allocate memory in it's current cpuset
       context.  Any nodes that are not included in the returned bitmask
       will be ignored in any of the following libnuma memory policy
       calls.

       numa_num_configured_cpus() returns the number of cpus in the
       system.  This count includes any cpus that are currently
       disabled. This count is derived from the cpu numbers in
       /sys/devices/system/cpu. If the kernel is configured without /sys
       (CONFIG_SYSFS=n) then it falls back to using the number of online
       cpus.

       numa_all_nodes_ptr points to a bitmask that is allocated by the
       library with bits representing all nodes on which the calling
       task may allocate memory.  This set may be up to all nodes on the
       system, or up to the nodes in the current cpuset.  The bitmask is
       allocated by a call to numa_allocate_nodemask() using size
       numa_max_possible_node().  The set of nodes to record is derived
       from /proc/self/status, field "Mems_allowed".  The user should
       not alter this bitmask.

       numa_no_nodes_ptr points to a bitmask that is allocated by the
       library and left all zeroes.  The bitmask is allocated by a call
       to numa_allocate_nodemask() using size numa_max_possible_node().
       The user should not alter this bitmask.

       numa_all_cpus_ptr points to a bitmask that is allocated by the
       library with bits representing all cpus on which the calling task
       may execute.  This set may be up to all cpus on the system, or up
       to the cpus in the current cpuset.  The bitmask is allocated by a
       call to numa_allocate_cpumask() using size
       numa_num_possible_cpus().  The set of cpus to record is derived
       from /proc/self/status, field "Cpus_allowed".  The user should
       not alter this bitmask.

       numa_num_task_cpus() returns the number of cpus that the calling
       task is allowed to use.  This count is derived from the map
       /proc/self/status, field "Cpus_allowed". Also see the bitmask
       numa_all_cpus_ptr.

       numa_num_task_nodes() returns the number of nodes on which the
       calling task is allowed to allocate memory.  This count is
       derived from the map /proc/self/status, field "Mems_allowed".
       Also see the bitmask numa_all_nodes_ptr.

       numa_parse_bitmap() parses line , which is a character string
       such as found in /sys/devices/system/node/nodeN/cpumap into a
       bitmask structure.  The string contains the hexadecimal
       representation of a bit map.  The bitmask may be allocated with
       numa_allocate_cpumask().  Returns  0 on success.  Returns -1 on
       failure.  This function is probably of little use to a user
       application, but it is used by libnuma internally.

       numa_parse_nodestring() parses a character string list of nodes
       into a bit mask.  The bit mask is allocated by
       numa_allocate_nodemask().  The string is a comma-separated list
       of node numbers or node ranges.  A leading ! can be used to
       indicate "not" this list (in other words, all nodes except this
       list), and a leading + can be used to indicate that the node
       numbers in the list are relative to the task's cpuset.  The
       string can be "all" to specify all ( numa_num_task_nodes() )
       nodes.  Node numbers are limited by the number in the system.
       See numa_max_node() and numa_num_configured_nodes().
       Examples:  1-5,7,10   !4-5   +0-3
       If the string is of 0 length, bitmask numa_no_nodes_ptr is
       returned.  Returns 0 if the string is invalid.

       numa_parse_nodestring_all() is similar to numa_parse_nodestring ,
       but can parse all possible nodes, not only current nodeset.

       numa_parse_cpustring() parses a character string list of cpus
       into a bit mask.  The bit mask is allocated by
       numa_allocate_cpumask().  The string is a comma-separated list of
       cpu numbers or cpu ranges.  A leading ! can be used to indicate
       "not" this list (in other words, all cpus except this list), and
       a leading + can be used to indicate that the cpu numbers in the
       list are relative to the task's cpuset.  The string can be "all"
       to specify all ( numa_num_task_cpus() ) cpus.  Cpu numbers are
       limited by the number in the system.  See numa_num_task_cpus()
       and numa_num_configured_cpus().
       Examples:  1-5,7,10   !4-5   +0-3
       Returns 0 if the string is invalid.

       numa_parse_cpustring_all() is similar to numa_parse_cpustring ,
       but can parse all possible cpus, not only current cpuset.

       numa_node_size() returns the memory size of a node. If the
       argument freep is not NULL, it used to return the amount of free
       memory on the node.  On error it returns -1.

       numa_node_size64() works the same as numa_node_size() except that
       it returns values as long long instead of long.  This is useful
       on 32-bit architectures with large nodes.

       numa_preferred() returns the preferred node of the current task.
       This is the node on which the kernel preferably allocates memory,
       unless some other policy overrides this.

       numa_set_preferred() sets the preferred node for the current task
       to node.  The system will attempt to allocate memory from the
       preferred node, but will fall back to other nodes if no memory is
       available on the the preferred node.  Passing a node of -1
       argument specifies local allocation and is equivalent to calling
       numa_set_localalloc().

       numa_get_interleave_mask() returns the current interleave mask if
       the task's memory allocation policy is page interleaved.
       Otherwise, this function returns an empty mask.

       numa_set_interleave_mask() sets the memory interleave mask for
       the current task to nodemask.  All new memory allocations are
       page interleaved over all nodes in the interleave mask.
       Interleaving can be turned off again by passing an empty mask
       (numa_no_nodes).  The page interleaving only occurs on the actual
       page fault that puts a new page into the current address space.
       It is also only a hint: the kernel will fall back to other nodes
       if no memory is available on the interleave target.

       numa_interleave_memory() interleaves size bytes of memory page by
       page from start on nodes specified in nodemask.  The size
       argument will be rounded up to a multiple of the system page
       size.  If nodemask contains nodes that are externally denied to
       this process, this call will fail.  This is a lower level
       function to interleave allocated but not yet faulted in memory.
       Not yet faulted in means the memory is allocated using mmap(2) or
       shmat(2), but has not been accessed by the current process yet.
       The memory is page interleaved to all nodes specified in
       nodemask.  Normally numa_alloc_interleaved() should be used for
       private memory instead, but this function is useful to handle
       shared memory areas. To be useful the memory area should be
       several megabytes at least (or tens of megabytes of hugetlbfs
       mappings) If the numa_set_strict() flag is true then the
       operation will cause a numa_error if there were already pages in
       the mapping that do not follow the policy.

       numa_bind() binds the current task and its children to the nodes
       specified in nodemask.  They will only run on the CPUs of the
       specified nodes and only be able to allocate memory from them.
       This function is equivalent to calling
       numa_run_on_node_mask(nodemask) followed by
       numa_set_membind(nodemask).  If tasks should be bound to
       individual CPUs inside nodes consider using numa_node_to_cpus and
       the sched_setaffinity(2) syscall.

       numa_set_localalloc() sets the memory allocation policy for the
       calling task to local allocation.  In this mode, the preferred
       node for memory allocation is effectively the node where the task
       is executing at the time of a page allocation.

       numa_set_membind() sets the memory allocation mask.  The task
       will only allocate memory from the nodes set in nodemask.
       Passing an empty nodemask or a nodemask that contains nodes other
       than those in the mask returned by numa_get_mems_allowed() will
       result in an error.

       numa_set_membind_balancing() sets the memory allocation mask and
       enable the Linux kernel NUMA balancing for the task if the
       feature is supported by the kernel.  The task will only allocate
       memory from the nodes set in nodemask.  Passing an empty nodemask
       or a nodemask that contains nodes other than those in the mask
       returned by numa_get_mems_allowed() will result in an error.

       numa_get_membind() returns the mask of nodes from which memory
       can currently be allocated.  If the returned mask is equal to
       numa_all_nodes, then memory allocation is allowed from all nodes.

       numa_alloc_onnode() allocates memory on a specific node.  The
       size argument will be rounded up to a multiple of the system page
       size.  if the specified node is externally denied to this
       process, this call will fail.  This function is relatively slow
       compared to the malloc(3), family of functions.  The memory must
       be freed with numa_free().  On errors NULL is returned.

       numa_alloc_local() allocates size bytes of memory on the local
       node.  The size argument will be rounded up to a multiple of the
       system page size.  This function is relatively slow compared to
       the malloc(3) family of functions.  The memory must be freed with
       numa_free().  On errors NULL is returned.

       numa_alloc_interleaved() allocates size bytes of memory page
       interleaved on all nodes. This function is relatively slow and
       should only be used for large areas consisting of multiple pages.
       The interleaving works at page level and will only show an effect
       when the area is large.  The allocated memory must be freed with
       numa_free().  On error, NULL is returned.

       numa_alloc_interleaved_subset() attempts to allocate size bytes
       of memory page interleaved on all nodes.  The size argument will
       be rounded up to a multiple of the system page size.  The nodes
       on which a process is allowed to allocate memory may be
       constrained externally.  If this is the case, this function may
       fail.  This function is relatively slow compare to malloc(3),
       family of functions and should only be used for large areas
       consisting of multiple pages.  The interleaving works at page
       level and will only show an effect when the area is large.  The
       allocated memory must be freed with numa_free().  On error, NULL
       is returned.

       numa_alloc() allocates size bytes of memory with the current NUMA
       policy.  The size argument will be rounded up to a multiple of
       the system page size.  This function is relatively slow compare
       to the malloc(3) family of functions.  The memory must be freed
       with numa_free().  On errors NULL is returned.

       numa_realloc() changes the size of the memory area pointed to by
       old_addr from old_size to new_size.  The memory area pointed to
       by old_addr must have been allocated with one of the numa_alloc*
       functions.  The new_size will be rounded up to a multiple of the
       system page size. The contents of the memory area will be
       unchanged to the minimum of the old and new sizes; newly
       allocated memory will be uninitialized. The memory policy (and
       node bindings) associated with the original memory area will be
       preserved in the resized area. For example, if the initial area
       was allocated with a call to numa_alloc_onnode(), then the new
       pages (if the area is enlarged) will be allocated on the same
       node.  However, if no memory policy was set for the original
       area, then numa_realloc() cannot guarantee that the new pages
       will be allocated on the same node. On success, the address of
       the resized area is returned (which might be different from that
       of the initial area), otherwise NULL is returned and errno is set
       to indicate the error. The pointer returned by numa_realloc() is
       suitable for passing to numa_free().

       numa_free() frees size bytes of memory starting at start,
       allocated by the numa_alloc_* functions above.  The size argument
       will be rounded up to a multiple of the system page size.

       numa_run_on_node() runs the current task and its children on a
       specific node. They will not migrate to CPUs of other nodes until
       the node affinity is reset with a new call to
       numa_run_on_node_mask().  Passing -1 permits the kernel to
       schedule on all nodes again.  On success, 0 is returned; on error
       -1 is returned, and errno is set to indicate the error.

       numa_run_on_node_mask() runs the current task and its children
       only on nodes specified in nodemask.  They will not migrate to
       CPUs of other nodes until the node affinity is reset with a new
       call to numa_run_on_node_mask() or numa_run_on_node().  Passing
       numa_all_nodes permits the kernel to schedule on all nodes again.
       On success, 0 is returned; on error -1 is returned, and errno is
       set to indicate the error.

       numa_run_on_node_mask_all() runs the current task and its
       children only on nodes specified in nodemask like
       numa_run_on_node_mask but without any cpuset awareness.

       numa_get_run_node_mask() returns a mask of CPUs on which the
       current task is allowed to run.

       numa_tonode_memory() put memory on a specific node. The
       constraints described for numa_interleave_memory() apply here
       too.

       numa_tonodemask_memory() put memory on a specific set of nodes.
       The constraints described for numa_interleave_memory() apply here
       too.

       numa_setlocal_memory() locates memory on the current node. The
       constraints described for numa_interleave_memory() apply here
       too.

       numa_police_memory() locates memory with the current NUMA policy.
       The constraints described for numa_interleave_memory() apply here
       too.

       numa_distance() reports the distance in the machine topology
       between two nodes.  The factors are a multiple of 10. It returns
       0 when the distance cannot be determined. A node has distance 10
       to itself.  Reporting the distance requires a Linux kernel
       version of 2.6.10 or newer.

       numa_set_bind_policy() specifies whether calls that bind memory
       to a specific node should use the preferred policy or a strict
       policy.  The preferred policy allows the kernel to allocate
       memory on other nodes when there isn't enough free on the target
       node. strict will fail the allocation in that case.  Setting the
       argument to specifies strict, 0 preferred.  Note that specifying
       more than one node non strict may only use the first node in some
       kernel versions.

       numa_set_strict() sets a flag that says whether the functions
       allocating on specific nodes should use use a strict policy.
       Strict means the allocation will fail if the memory cannot be
       allocated on the target node.  Default operation is to fall back
       to other nodes.  This doesn't apply to interleave and default.

       numa_get_interleave_node() is used by libnuma internally. It is
       probably not useful for user applications.  It uses the
       MPOL_F_NODE flag of the get_mempolicy system call, which is not
       intended for application use (its operation may change or be
       removed altogether in future kernel versions). See
       get_mempolicy(2).

       numa_pagesize() returns the number of bytes in page. This
       function is simply a fast alternative to repeated calls to the
       getpagesize system call.  See getpagesize(2).

       numa_sched_getaffinity() retrieves a bitmask of the cpus on which
       a task may run.  The task is specified by pid.  Returns the
       return value of the sched_getaffinity system call.  See
       sched_getaffinity(2).  The bitmask must be at least the size of
       the kernel's cpu mask structure. Use numa_allocate_cpumask() to
       allocate it.  Test the bits in the mask by calling
       numa_bitmask_isbitset().

       numa_sched_setaffinity() sets a task's allowed cpu's to those
       cpu's specified in mask.  The task is specified by pid.  Returns
       the return value of the sched_setaffinity system call.  See
       sched_setaffinity(2).  You may allocate the bitmask with
       numa_allocate_cpumask().  Or the bitmask may be smaller than the
       kernel's cpu mask structure. For example, call
       numa_bitmask_alloc() using a maximum number of cpus from
       numa_num_configured_cpus().  Set the bits in the mask by calling
       numa_bitmask_setbit().

       numa_node_to_cpus() converts a node number to a bitmask of CPUs.
       The user must pass a bitmask structure with a mask buffer long
       enough to represent all possible cpu's.  Use
       numa_allocate_cpumask() to create it.  If the bitmask is not long
       enough errno will be set to ERANGE and -1 returned. On success 0
       is returned.

       numa_node_to_cpu_update() Mark cpus bitmask of all nodes stale,
       then get the latest bitmask by calling numa_node_to_cpus() This
       allows to update the libnuma state after a CPU hotplug event. The
       application is in charge of detecting CPU hotplug events.

       numa_node_of_cpu() returns the node that a cpu belongs to. If the
       user supplies an invalid cpu errno will be set to EINVAL and -1
       will be returned.

       numa_allocate_cpumask () returns a bitmask of a size equal to the
       kernel's cpu mask (kernel type cpumask_t).  In other words, large
       enough to represent NR_CPUS cpus.  This number of cpus can be
       gotten by calling numa_num_possible_cpus().  The bitmask is zero-
       filled.

       numa_free_cpumask frees a cpumask previously allocate by
       numa_allocate_cpumask.

       numa_allocate_nodemask() returns a bitmask of a size equal to the
       kernel's node mask (kernel type nodemask_t).  In other words,
       large enough to represent MAX_NUMNODES nodes.  This number of
       nodes can be gotten by calling numa_num_possible_nodes().  The
       bitmask is zero-filled.

       numa_free_nodemask() frees a nodemask previous allocated by
       numa_allocate_nodemask().

       numa_bitmask_alloc() allocates a bitmask structure and its
       associated bit mask.  The memory allocated for the bit mask
       contains enough words (type unsigned long) to contain n bits.
       The bit mask is zero-filled.  The bitmask structure points to the
       bit mask and contains the n value.

       numa_bitmask_clearall() sets all bits in the bit mask to 0.  The
       bitmask structure points to the bit mask and contains its size (
       bmp ->size).  The value of bmp is always returned.  Note that
       numa_bitmask_alloc() creates a zero-filled bit mask.

       numa_bitmask_clearbit() sets a specified bit in a bit mask to 0.
       Nothing is done if the n value is greater than the size of the
       bitmask (and no error is returned). The value of bmp is always
       returned.

       numa_bitmask_equal() returns 1 if two bitmasks are equal.  It
       returns 0 if they are not equal.  If the bitmask structures
       control bit masks of different sizes, the "missing" trailing bits
       of the smaller bit mask are considered to be 0.

       numa_bitmask_free() deallocates the memory of both the bitmask
       structure pointed to by bmp and the bit mask.  It is an error to
       attempt to free this bitmask twice.

       numa_bitmask_isbitset() returns the value of a specified bit in a
       bit mask.  If the n value is greater than the size of the bit
       map, 0 is returned.

       numa_bitmask_nbytes() returns the size (in bytes) of the bit mask
       controlled by bmp.  The bit masks are always full words (type
       unsigned long), and the returned size is the actual size of all
       those words.

       numa_bitmask_setall() sets all bits in the bit mask to 1.  The
       bitmask structure points to the bit mask and contains its size (
       bmp ->size).  The value of bmp is always returned.

       numa_bitmask_setbit() sets a specified bit in a bit mask to 1.
       Nothing is done if n is greater than the size of the bitmask (and
       no error is returned). The value of bmp is always returned.

       copy_bitmask_to_nodemask() copies the body (the bit map itself)
       of the bitmask structure pointed to by bmp to the nodemask_t
       structure pointed to by the nodemask pointer. If the two areas
       differ in size, the copy is truncated to the size of the
       receiving field or zero-filled.

       copy_nodemask_to_bitmask() copies the nodemask_t structure
       pointed to by the nodemask pointer to the body (the bit map
       itself) of the bitmask structure pointed to by the bmp pointer.
       If the two areas differ in size, the copy is truncated to the
       size of the receiving field or zero-filled.

       copy_bitmask_to_bitmask() copies the body (the bit map itself) of
       the bitmask structure pointed to by the bmpfrom pointer to the
       body of the bitmask structure pointed to by the bmpto pointer. If
       the two areas differ in size, the copy is truncated to the size
       of the receiving field or zero-filled.

       numa_bitmask_weight() returns a count of the bits that are set in
       the body of the bitmask pointed to by the bmp argument.

       numa_move_pages() moves a list of pages in the address space of
       the currently executing or current process.  It simply uses the
       move_pages system call.
       pid - ID of task.  If not valid, use the current task.
       count - Number of pages.
       pages - List of pages to move.
       nodes - List of nodes to which pages can be moved.
       status - Field to which status is to be returned.
       flags - MPOL_MF_MOVE or MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL
       See move_pages(2).

       numa_migrate_pages() simply uses the migrate_pages system call to
       cause the pages of the calling task, or a specified task, to be
       migated from one set of nodes to another.  See migrate_pages(2).
       The bit masks representing the nodes should be allocated with
       numa_allocate_nodemask() , or with numa_bitmask_alloc() using an
       n value returned from numa_num_possible_nodes().  A task's
       current node set can be gotten by calling numa_get_membind().
       Bits in the tonodes mask can be set by calls to
       numa_bitmask_setbit().

       numa_error() is a libnuma internal function that can be
       overridden by the user program.  This function is called with a
       char * argument when a libnuma function fails.  Overriding the
       library internal definition makes it possible to specify a
       different error handling strategy when a libnuma function fails.
       It does not affect numa_available().  The numa_error() function
       defined in libnuma prints an error on stderr and terminates the
       program if numa_exit_on_error is set to a non-zero value.  The
       default value of numa_exit_on_error is zero.

       numa_warn() is a libnuma internal function that can be also
       overridden by the user program.  It is called to warn the user
       when a libnuma function encounters a non-fatal error.  The
       default implementation prints a warning to stderr.  The first
       argument is a unique number identifying each warning. After that
       there is a printf(3)-style format string and a variable number of
       arguments.  numa_warn exits the program when numa_exit_on_warn is
       set to a non-zero value.  The default value of numa_exit_on_warn
       is zero.

Compatibility with libnuma version 1  

       Binaries that were compiled for libnuma version 1 need not be re-
       compiled to run with libnuma version 2.
       Source codes written for libnuma version 1 may be re-compiled
       without change with version 2 installed. To do so, in the code's
       Makefile add this option to CFLAGS:
       -DNUMA_VERSION1_COMPATIBILITY

THREAD SAFETY   

       numa_set_bind_policy and numa_exit_on_error are process global.
       The other calls are thread safe.
