Hi, Adrian,

Thanks, I have checked out your ACPI related change for NUMA support. Looking forward to your further updates.

Is the discussion public? it will be very helpful if there are any records. We have had a hacked and limited impl of NUMA, and wondering if we can help on a general design for FreeBSD.

Regards,
Gavin Mu
