[Bug 1419503] Re: [SRU] lscpu reports incorrect number of NUMA nodes on systems with discontinuous NUMA nodes

 

Hello Matt, or anyone else affected,

Accepted util-linux into trusty-proposed. The package will build now and
be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/util-
linux/2.20.1-5.1ubuntu20.4 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed
repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this update
out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed.  In either case, details of your testing will help
us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

Title:
  [SRU] lscpu reports incorrect number of NUMA nodes on systems with
  discontinuous NUMA nodes

Status in util-linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in util-linux source package in Trusty:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Running 'lscpu' on a system with discontinuous NUMA nodes (such as some IBM Power 8 hardware) will only display the continuous NUMA nodes.  Users may be confused due to incorrect information.

  [Test Case]
  On a system with discontinuous NUMA nodes, just run the lscpu command
  # ls -d /sys/devices/system/node/node*
  /sys/devices/system/node/node0  /sys/devices/system/node/node1  /sys/devices/system/node/node16  /sys/devices/system/node/node17
  # lscpu|grep NUMA
  NUMA node(s):          2
  NUMA node0 CPU(s):     0-39
  NUMA node1 CPU(s):     40-79

  [Regression Potential]
  Since this is an informational command, anything relying on its output may experience new behavior.


  This affects Trusty, but Utopic and Vivid are based on newer upstream
  releases that don't include this error.
