From 4bb4a2732e097cd20594bab9039fcba9fac0b31f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Igor Mammedov Date: Thu, 30 May 2019 10:33:19 +0200 Subject: numa: deprecate implict memory distribution between nodes Implicit RAM distribution between nodes has exactly the same issues as: "numa: deprecate 'mem' parameter of '-numa node' option" only with QEMU being the user that's 'adding' 'mem' parameter. Deprecate it, to get it out of the way so that we could consolidate guest RAM allocation using memory backends making it consistent and possibly later on transition to using memory devices instead of adhoc memory mapping for the initial RAM.
