[RFC PATCH v1 8/8] dmaengine: assign DMA channel to CPU according to NUMA affinity

From: Jiang Liu
Date: Mon Apr 23 2012 - 09:57:10 EST


On systems with multiple CPUs and DMA devices, try optimize DMA
performance by assigning DMA channel to CPU according to NUMA
affinity relationship. This may help architectures with memory
controllers and DMA devices built into physical processors.
