@findex -numa
Define a NUMA node and assign RAM and VCPUs to it.
Set the NUMA distance from a source node to a destination node.
+Set the ACPI Heterogeneous Memory Attributes for the given nodes.
Legacy VCPU assignment uses @samp{cpus} option where
@var{firstcpu} and @var{lastcpu} are CPU indexes. Each
@samp{mem} and @samp{memdev} are mutually exclusive. Furthermore,
if one node uses @samp{memdev}, all of them have to use it.
+@samp{initiator} is an additional option that points to an @var{initiator}
+NUMA node that has best performance (the lowest latency or largest bandwidth)
+to this NUMA @var{node}. Note that this option can be set only when
+the machine property 'hmat' is set to 'on'.
+
+Following example creates a machine with 2 NUMA nodes, node 0 has CPU.
+node 1 has only memory, and its initiator is node 0. Note that because
+node 0 has CPU, by default the initiator of node 0 is itself and must be
+itself.
+@example
+-machine hmat=on \
+-m 2G,slots=2,maxmem=4G \
+-object memory-backend-ram,size=1G,id=m0 \
+-object memory-backend-ram,size=1G,id=m1 \
+-numa node,nodeid=0,memdev=m0 \
+-numa node,nodeid=1,memdev=m1,initiator=0 \
+-smp 2,sockets=2,maxcpus=2 \
+-numa cpu,node-id=0,socket-id=0 \
+-numa cpu,node-id=0,socket-id=1
+@end example
+
@var{source} and @var{destination} are NUMA node IDs.
@var{distance} is the NUMA distance from @var{source} to @var{destination}.
The distance from a node to itself is always 10. If any pair of nodes is
nodes. This means that one still has to use the @option{-m},
@option{-smp} options to allocate RAM and VCPUs respectively.
+Use @samp{hmat-lb} to set System Locality Latency and Bandwidth Information
+between initiator and target NUMA nodes in ACPI Heterogeneous Attribute Memory Table (HMAT).
+Initiator NUMA node can create memory requests, usually it has one or more processors.
+Target NUMA node contains addressable memory.
+
+In @samp{hmat-lb} option, @var{node} are NUMA node IDs. @var{hierarchy} is the memory
+hierarchy of the target NUMA node: if @var{hierarchy} is 'memory', the structure
+represents the memory performance; if @var{hierarchy} is 'first-level|second-level|third-level',
+this structure represents aggregated performance of memory side caches for each domain.
+@var{type} of 'data-type' is type of data represented by this structure instance:
+if 'hierarchy' is 'memory', 'data-type' is 'access|read|write' latency or 'access|read|write'
+bandwidth of the target memory; if 'hierarchy' is 'first-level|second-level|third-level',
+'data-type' is 'access|read|write' hit latency or 'access|read|write' hit bandwidth of the
+target memory side cache.
+
+@var{lat} is latency value in nanoseconds. @var{bw} is bandwidth value,
+the possible value and units are NUM[M|G|T], mean that the bandwidth value are
+NUM byte per second (or MB/s, GB/s or TB/s depending on used suffix).
+Note that if latency or bandwidth value is 0, means the corresponding latency or
+bandwidth information is not provided.
+
+In @samp{hmat-cache} option, @var{node-id} is the NUMA-id of the memory belongs.
+@var{size} is the size of memory side cache in bytes. @var{level} is the cache
+level described in this structure, note that the cache level 0 should not be used
+with @samp{hmat-cache} option. @var{associativity} is the cache associativity,
+the possible value is 'none/direct(direct-mapped)/complex(complex cache indexing)'.
+@var{policy} is the write policy. @var{line} is the cache Line size in bytes.
+
+For example, the following options describe 2 NUMA nodes. Node 0 has 2 cpus and
+a ram, node 1 has only a ram. The processors in node 0 access memory in node
+0 with access-latency 5 nanoseconds, access-bandwidth is 200 MB/s;
+The processors in NUMA node 0 access memory in NUMA node 1 with access-latency 10
+nanoseconds, access-bandwidth is 100 MB/s.
+And for memory side cache information, NUMA node 0 and 1 both have 1 level memory
+cache, size is 10KB, policy is write-back, the cache Line size is 8 bytes:
+@example
+-machine hmat=on \
+-m 2G \
+-object memory-backend-ram,size=1G,id=m0 \
+-object memory-backend-ram,size=1G,id=m1 \
+-smp 2 \
+-numa node,nodeid=0,memdev=m0 \
+-numa node,nodeid=1,memdev=m1,initiator=0 \
+-numa cpu,node-id=0,socket-id=0 \
+-numa cpu,node-id=0,socket-id=1 \
+-numa hmat-lb,initiator=0,target=0,hierarchy=memory,data-type=access-latency,latency=5 \
+-numa hmat-lb,initiator=0,target=0,hierarchy=memory,data-type=access-bandwidth,bandwidth=200M \
+-numa hmat-lb,initiator=0,target=1,hierarchy=memory,data-type=access-latency,latency=10 \
+-numa hmat-lb,initiator=0,target=1,hierarchy=memory,data-type=access-bandwidth,bandwidth=100M \
+-numa hmat-cache,node-id=0,size=10K,level=1,associativity=direct,policy=write-back,line=8 \
+-numa hmat-cache,node-id=1,size=10K,level=1,associativity=direct,policy=write-back,line=8
