RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Artyom 2015-12-28 13:29:35 UTC
Description of problem:
I run vm with next parameters
<numatune>
    <memory mode='interleave' nodeset='0-1'/>
</numatune>
and I wait that vm process will have Mems_allowed_list:      0-1
but instead it, it has Mems_allowed_list:      0
I also tried it on host with numa indexes 0,2
<numatune>
    <memory mode='interleave' nodeset='0,2'/>
</numatune>
and it work as expected
Mems_allowed_list:      0,2

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start vm with parametets:
<numatune>
    <memory mode='interleave' nodeset='0-1'/>
</numatune> on host with numa nodes 0 and 1
2. check vm memory allowed list
cat /proc/vm_pid/status | grep Mems_allowed_list
3.

Actual results:
Mems_allowed_list:      0

Expected results:
Mems_allowed_list:      0-1

Comment 2 Artyom 2015-12-30 07:44:51 UTC
My mistake, I checked again host where I ran my test and it not has memory on second numa node, so I assume, that behavior described above is correct one and not a bug. 
# numactl -H
available: 2 nodes (0-1)
node 0 cpus: 0 8 16 24 32
node 0 size: 32768 MB
node 0 free: 28681 MB
node 1 cpus: 40 48 56 64 72
node 1 size: 0 MB
node 1 free: 0 MB
node distances:
node   0   1 
  0:  10  20 
  1:  20  10
