Hello,

With kernel-4.18.0-494.el8.x86_64 and numactl-2.0.12-13.el8.x86_64 it is reproducible.

It should be fixed at the current release 2.0.16-1. Could you verify it? And if ok, I can close it

Thanks

Hello Pingfan,

I still see the typo at the examples section of memhog man page.

Comment 5 Pingfan Liu 2023-06-12 12:11:38 UTC
Oh, I find the typo. I had thought it appeared in the section
"
Supported numa-policies:
.TP
.B interleave
Memory will be allocated using round robin on nodes. When
memory cannot be allocated on the current interleave, target fall back
to other nodes.  Multiple nodes may be specified.
"

But it turned out that I was wrong.

Thanks
