Unfortunately, interleave policy doesn't work for me. I suspect kernel configuration blocks this or I don't understand something in kernel internals. I'm using 3.10 rt kernel from rhel7. I tried to set up MPOL_INTERLEAVE in code and it doesn't work for me. Your example with numactl doesn't work too: # Limited to 8GB of hugepages cgexec -g hugetlb:test testpmd --socket-mem=4096,4096 EAL: Setting up physically contiguous memory... EAL: SIGBUS: Cannot mmap more hugepages of size 1024 MB EAL: 8 not 90 hugepages of size 1024 MB allocated EAL: Hugepage /dev/hugepages/rtemap_0 is on socket 0 EAL: Hugepage /dev/hugepages/rtemap_1 is on socket 0 EAL: Hugepage /dev/hugepages/rtemap_2 is on socket 0 EAL: Hugepage /dev/hugepages/rtemap_3 is on socket 0 EAL: Hugepage /dev/hugepages/rtemap_4 is on socket 0 EAL: Hugepage /dev/hugepages/rtemap_5 is on socket 0 EAL: Hugepage /dev/hugepages/rtemap_6 is on socket 0 EAL: Hugepage /dev/hugepages/rtemap_7 is on socket 0 EAL: Not enough memory available on socket 1! Requested: 4096MB, available: 0MB PANIC in rte_eal_init(): Cannot init memory Also, using numactl will affect all the allocations in application. This may cause additional unexpected issues. > > Do you see use case like --socket-mem 2048,1024 and only three 1GB-hugepage are allowed? This case will work with my patch. But the opposite one '--socket-mem=1024,2048' will fail. To be clear, we need to allocate all required memory at first from each numa node and then allocate all other available pages in round-robin fashion. But such solution looks a little ugly. What do you think? Best regards, Ilya Maximets.
