Subject: cluster machines with per-CPU local memory (one step beyond numa ?;-))


Hi folks,


suppose we have a machine that consists a bunch of CPUs which
have local memory (directly tied to the core, w/o additional
caches) and either an slower shared memory or some DMA interlink
(which only works on page granularity).

Can Linux yet utilize such an machine ? How is this done ?
Or how could it be done ?
