Xen devel - Mar 2008 - [PATCH] Allow explicit NUMA placements of guests

Hi,

this patch introduces a new config file option (numanodes=[x]) to 
specify a list of valid NUMA nodes for guests. This will extend (but not 
replace) the recently introduced automatic placement. If several nodes 
are given, the current algorithm will choose one of them. If none of the 
given nodes has enough memory, this will fall back to the automatic 
placement.

You need to update the API document and the changelog if you''re
extending it...
