Linux kernel source tree
ef78e5ec92
The numa_slit variable used by node_distance is available to a module as long as it is linked at compile-time. However, it is not available to loadable modules. Leading to errors such as: ERROR: "numa_slit" [drivers/nvme/host/nvme-core.ko] undefined! The error above is caused by the nvme multipath code that makes use of node_distance for its path calculation. When the patch was added, the lightnvm subsystem would select nvme and always compile it in, leading to the node_distance call to always succeed. However, when this requirement was removed, nvme could be compiled in as a module, which exposed this bug. This patch extracts node_distance to a function and exports it. Since ACPI is depending on node_distance being a simple lookup to numa_slit, the previous behavior is exposed as slit_distance and its users updated. Fixes: |

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 Restructured Text 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.
