I explained the procedure above. >=20 > sorry, i don't know 'frob'. > what exactly options combination I need test and what about memory test= ? >=20 The idea is that when rebooting, stale memory contents remain, but are corrupted due to interleave. "Frob" basically means "mess with". So apply patch, test kernel, reboot, change NUMA option, reboot again, see if it works, and so on. Basically repeat your test with the NUMA=3Don interleave=3Don, NUMA=3Doff= interleave=3Don, etc etc. hth, --arw --=20 A.
