[PATCH] Localize Pagesets in a NUMA system using the NUMA slab allocator

From:  Christoph Lameter <christoph@lameter.com>

Subject:  [PATCH] Localize Pagesets in a NUMA system using the NUMA slab allocator
Date:  Tue, 15 Mar 2005 20:01:36 -0800 (PST)

[obviously depends on the NUMA slab allocator]

This patch modifies the way pagesets in struct zone are managed. It relocates
the pagesets for each cpu to the node that is nearest to the cpu using
the NUMA slab allocator. This means that the operations to manage pages
on remote zone can be done with information available locally.
