OK, the issue comes from that my arm64 VM has no ACPI but x86_64 VM has it, thus on arm64 VM numa_init(arch_acpi_numa_ini) failed in arch_numa_init() and the code falls back to numa_init(dummy_numa_init). In dummy_numa_init(), before patch 23 "arch_numa: switch over to numa_memblks", numa_add_memblk() from drivers/base/arch_numa.c is called on arm64, which unconditionally set 0 to numa_nodes_parsed. This is missing in the x86 version of numa_add_memblk(), which is now used by all arch. By adding the patch below, my arm64 kernel boots in the VM. diff --git a/drivers/base/arch_numa.c b/drivers/base/arch_numa.c index 806550239d08..354f15b8d9b7 100644 --- a/drivers/base/arch_numa.c +++ b/drivers/base/arch_numa.c @@ -279,6 +279,7 @@ static int __init dummy_numa_init(void) pr_err("NUMA init failed\n"); return ret; } + node_set(0, numa_nodes_parsed); numa_off = true; return 0; Feel free to add Tested-by: Zi Yan <ziy@xxxxxxxxxx> # for x86_64 and arm64 after you incorporate the fix. -- Best Regards, Yan, Zi
