Subject: [PATCH] libnuma: disable caching of node cpusmasks
Date: Fri, 12 Jun 2015 17:16:12 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1434122172-26560-1-git-send-email-pholasek@redhat.com> (raw)

Caching of node cpumasks confuses long-time running tasks like libvirtd.
If there was an offlined/onlined cpu between two numa_node_to_cpus() calls,
libnuma still returns the same cpumask as before.
