System page_pools are percpu and one instance can be used only on one CPU. %NUMA_NO_NODE is fine for allocating pages, as the PP core always allocates local pages in this case. But for the struct &page_pool itself, this node ID means they are allocated on the boot CPU, which may belong to a different node than the target CPU. Pin system page_pools to the corresponding nodes when creating, so that all the allocated data will always be local. Use cpu_to_mem() to account memless nodes. Nodes != 0 win some Kpps when testing with xdp-trafficgen.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
