Bug#960935: linux: please enable CONFIG_NUMA on sparc64

Severity: wishlist

Hi!
While discussing porting one of my packages to sparc64 (I wanted to
run its tests, requiring the NUMA API, at least on a single machine)
I was told that a lot of sparc64 machines in the wild have multiple
sockets.  Sparc architecture in general tends to have a lot of slow
CPUs, using many-way SMT and NUMA nodes.

As cross-socket accesses are in general a same-week service, it would
be a good idea to enable this API so programs can be aware of NUMA
setups.

Thus: could you please set CONFIG_NUMA=y on linux-image-sparc64-smp?


Meow!
