Hello list, currently my numa library reports two cpus more than I actuall have: nCPUs=numa_num_configured_cpus(); printf("Currently available CPUs: %d\n",nCPUs); Currently available CPUs: 34 (but it has only 32) looking in the source: static void set_configured_cpus(void) { int filecount=0; char *dirnamep = "/sys/devices/system/cpu"; struct dirent *dirent; DIR *dir; dir = opendir(dirnamep); if (dir == NULL) { /* fall back to using the online cpu count */ maxconfiguredcpu = sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF) - 1; return; } while ((dirent = readdir(dir)) != 0) { if (!strncmp("cpu", dirent->d_name, 3)) { filecount++; } else { continue; } } closedir(dir); maxconfiguredcpu = filecount-1; /* high cpu number */ return; } Makes the error clear. On kernel 2.6.33 I have: cpu0/ cpu21/ cpu6/ cpu1/ cpu22/ cpu7/ cpu10/ cpu23/ cpu8/ cpu11/ cpu24/ cpu9/ cpu12/ cpu25/ cpufreq/ <------- Here cpu13/ cpu26/ cpuidle/ <------- Here cpu14/ cpu27/ kernel_max cpu15/ cpu28/ offline cpu16/ cpu29/ online cpu17/ cpu3/ perf_events/ cpu18/ cpu30/ possible cpu19/ cpu31/ present cpu2/ cpu4/ sched_mc_power_savings cpu20/ cpu5/ I think it counts "cpufreq" and "cpuidle" too. I'm using numactl-2.0.4-rc2, is there a version where the bug (I assume its a bug) is already corrected in a patch? regards, Martin -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-numa" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
