dmesg_fake_numa_init.c

// This file is part of KASLD - https://github.com/bcoles/kasld
//
// fake_numa_init() / dummy_numa_init() prints memblock_start_of_DRAM()
// physical address of the first memblock to dmesg on systems which do not
// support Non-Uniform Memory Access (NUMA).
//
// On systems with a known phys->virt offset mapping, this may be used to
// identify the kernel virtual address region used for direct mapping.
//
// NUMA support may be disabled in BIOS or via Linux kernel command line with
// the `acpi=off` flag. Systems without Advanced Configuration and Power
// Interface (ACPI) do not support NUMA.
//
// Requires:
// - kernel.dmesg_restrict = 0; or CAP_SYSLOG capabilities; or
//   readable /var/log/dmesg.
//
