Cant you write a small script that scans the information in numa_maps and then displays the total pages per NUMA node and then a list of which ranges have how many pages on a particular node? > reading this file will not be restricted(i.e requiring CAP_SYS_ADMIN). So a prime motivator here is security restricted access to numa_maps?
