Subject: [driver-core PATCH v8 7/9] driver core: Attach devices on CPU local to device node
Date: Wed, 05 Dec 2018 09:25:49 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <154403074977.11544.13408447599624293705.stgit@ahduyck-desk1.jf.intel.com> (raw)

Call the asynchronous probe routines on a CPU local to the device node. By
doing this we should be able to improve our initialization time
significantly as we can avoid having to access the device from a remote
node which may introduce higher latency.

For example, in the case of initializing memory for NVDIMM this can have a
significant impact as initialing 3TB on remote node can take up to 39
seconds while initialing it on a local node only takes 23 seconds. It is
situations like this where we will see the biggest improvement.
