Description Rafael Aquini 2023-03-22 20:18:09 UTC 
Since kernel v5.15 there's a new memory allocation policy (MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY),
and such policy was requested to be backported to RHEL-8.9 by Intel, via Bug 2153926.

Applications linking against libnuma as well as applications that depend on numactl to set their default allocation policy will required this update in order
to leverage the new policy implemented by the kernel.
