[PATCH] nodemask: use nr_node_ids instead of MAX_NUMNODES in __nodemask_pr_numnodes()
From: lirongqing
Date: Thu Jul 09 2026 - 03:21:00 EST
From: Li RongQing <lirongqing@xxxxxxxxx>
__nodemask_pr_numnodes() returns MAX_NUMNODES, a compile-time constant,
as the width for '%*pb[l]' nodemask printing. On systems with few NUMA
nodes this produces excessive zero-padding, e.g. with MAX_NUMNODES=1024
but only 2 nodes:
Mems_allowed: 00000000,00000000,...,00000003 (32 groups)
Use nr_node_ids (the runtime highest-node-id + 1) instead, matching the
behavior of cpumask_pr_args() which uses nr_cpu_ids:
Mems_allowed: 00000003
Move the nr_node_ids declaration earlier in the file (guarded by
__nodemask_pr_numnodes(), and remove the now-duplicate declarations.
