The minimum kernel version supported is 3.16

For Haswell supporting, please also apply a perf patch on 3.16. The patch is kernel_patches/0001-perf-x86-Widen-Haswell-OFFCORE-mask.patch.

The patch can also be found at following link: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/1964864

Directories

common: common code for all platforms.

intel : Intel platform-specific code.

powerpc: PowerPC platform-specific code.

test : mgen source code. mgen is a micro-test application which can generate memory access with runtime latency value among CPUs. Note that this application is only used for numatop testing!

kernel_patches: the required kernel patches.

Supported Hardware

numatop is supported on Intel Xeon processors: 5500-series, 6500/7500-series, 5600 series, E7-x8xx-series, and E5-16xx/24xx/26xx/46xx-series.

E5-16xx/24xx/26xx/46xx-series had better be updated to latest CPU microcode (microcode must be 0x618+ or 0x70c+).
