0、概述
结合NUMA的架构，Linux抽象出了三级内存管理架构：内存节点node、内存区域zone和物理页框page。
在NUMA模型中，每个CPU都有自己的本地内存节点（memory node），而且还可以通过QPI总线访问其他CPU下挂的内存节点，只是访问本地内存要比访问其他CPU下的内存的速度高许多，一般经过一次QPI要增加30%的访问时延。
内存节点node是为了解决多处理器内存访问竞争的问题，而内存区域zone是为了解决32位系统内核只有1G的虚拟地址空间，无法管理大于1G的物理内存这个问题，zone按照用途划分成几种类型，比如低端内存区，高端内存区，DMA内存区等。

1、内存节点node
NUMA结构下, 每个处理器与一个本地内存直接相连, 而不同处理器之间则通过总线进行进一步的连接。linux内核把物理内存按照CPU节点划分为不同的node, 每个node作为某个cpu结点的本地内存, 而作为其他CPU节点的远程内存, 而UMA结构下, 则任务系统中只存在一个内存node, 这样对于UMA结构来说, 内核把内存当成只有一个内存node节点的伪NUMA。因此，NUMA和UMA的管理方式便一致了。
Linux内核中使用数据结构pg_data_t来表示内存节点node，我们把它叫做结点描述符。如常用的ARM架构为UMA架构。对于UMA架构只有一个内存节点，对于NUMA架构有多个内存节点。
在numa.h中有如下定义：
#ifdef CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT#define NODES_SHIFT CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT#else#define NODES_SHIFT 0#endif#define MAX_NUMNODES (1 << NODES_SHIFT)CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT是由用户配置的内存节点的数目。可以看到，对于UMA架构，MAX_NUMNODES等于1。
include/linux/mmzone.h:

#ifndef CONFIG_NUMAextern struct pglist_data contig_page_data;static inline struct pglist_data *NODE_DATA(int nid){return &contig_page_data;}#else /* CONFIG_NUMA */#include #endif /* !CONFIG_NUMA */定义了NUMA时，NUMA和平台相关，截取arm64的定义如下：
arch/arm64/include/asm/mmzone.h:
/* SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 */#ifndef __ASM_MMZONE_H#define __ASM_MMZONE_H#ifdef CONFIG_NUMA#include extern struct pglist_data *node_data[];#define NODE_DATA(nid)(node_data[(nid)])#endif /* CONFIG_NUMA */#endif /* __ASM_MMZONE_H */定义了一个全局指针数组node_data用于存放系统的所有node，宏NODE_DATA用于取得指定id的node。
定义了一个全局静态位图数组用于存放各种状态下的node：
/* * Array of node states. */nodemask_t node_states[NR_NODE_STATES] __read_mostly = {[N_POSSIBLE] = NODE_MASK_ALL,[N_ONLINE] = { { [0] = 1UL } },#ifndef CONFIG_NUMA[N_NORMAL_MEMORY] = { { [0] = 1UL } },#ifdef CONFIG_HIGHMEM[N_HIGH_MEMORY] = { { [0] = 1UL } },#endif[N_MEMORY] = { { [0] = 1UL } },[N_CPU] = { { [0] = 1UL } },#endif/* NUMA */};/* * Bitmasks that are kept for all the nodes. */enum node_states {N_POSSIBLE,/* The node could become online at some point */N_ONLINE,/* The node is online */N_NORMAL_MEMORY,/* The node has regular memory */#ifdef CONFIG_HIGHMEMN_HIGH_MEMORY,/* The node has regular or high memory */#elseN_HIGH_MEMORY = N_NORMAL_MEMORY,#endifN_MEMORY,/* The node has memory(regular, high, movable) */N_CPU,/* The node has one or more cpus */N_GENERIC_INITIATOR,/* The node has one or more Generic Initiators */NR_NODE_STATES};N_POSSIBLE是假定所有的node都可能存在。
N_ONLINE标记在线的结点。
N_MEMORY标记有内存的结点。
上面的位图数组里，都假定至少有一个node。
结合状态位图数组，提供了遍历特定状态结点的宏：
如果没有启用NUMA：
相当于只有一个结点，循环一次即结束：
#define for_each_node_state(node, __state) \for ( (node) = 0; (node) == 0; (node) = 1)如果启用了NUMA：
#define for_each_node_state(__node, __state) \for_each_node_mask((__node), node_states[__state])for_each_node_mask就是去遍历状态位图，挨个取出置位的node：
#if MAX_NUMNODES > 1#define for_each_node_mask(node, mask) \for ((node) = first_node(mask); \ (node >= 0) && (node) < MAX_NUMNODES; \ (node) = next_node((node), (mask)))#else /* MAX_NUMNODES == 1 */#define for_each_node_mask(node, mask) \for ((node) = 0; (node) < 1 && !nodes_empty(mask); (node)++)#endif /* MAX_NUMNODES */for_each_node是遍历N_POSSIBLE位图，就是遍历可能存在的结点，就是根据配置，所有结点都遍历一遍。
for_each_online_node是遍历N_ONLINE位图，就是遍历在线的结点。
#define for_each_node(node) for_each_node_state(node, N_POSSIBLE)#define for_each_online_node(node) for_each_node_state(node, N_ONLINE)2、NUMA的初始化
--->setup_arch --->bootmem_init --->arch_numa_init如果没有启用NUMA，arch_numa_init是个空函数
如果启用了NUMA:
/** * arch_numa_init() - Initialize NUMA * * Try each configured NUMA initialization method until one succeeds. The * last fallback is dummy single node config encompassing whole memory. */void __init arch_numa_init(void){if (!numa_off) {if (!acpi_disabled && !numa_init(arch_acpi_numa_init))return;if (acpi_disabled && !numa_init(of_numa_init))return;}numa_init(dummy_numa_init); // 失败时才走这里，关闭numa}在没有开启acpi时，就是从设备树读取node信息，然后进行初始化。
of_numa_init：
1、从设备树解析出每个cpu所属的node_id，初始化node全局位图numa_nodes_parsed。
2、从设备树解析出每段内存所属的node_id，注册到全局静态早期内存管理器memblock。
3、从设备树解析出两两结点间的距离，初始化全局静态node距离表numa_distance。
numa_init会调用of_numa_init，将从设备树读取到的结果初始化全局结点状态位图，比如哪些结点在线，以及每个结点的内存起始PFN。
