The problem with that is we don't want to use any valid numa node, but the node we are connected to or we don't want to use the accelerator at all. Otherwise, when the first valid numa node happens to be the remote node the dma transactions we be slow and instead of accelerating we will slow things down. A patch that enforces this is on it's way. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-crypto" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
