> Subject: [PATCH v6 1/7] vhost: fix missing memory table NUMA realloc
> 
> When the guest allocates virtqueues on a different NUMA node
> than the one the Vhost metadata are allocated, both the Vhost
> device struct and the virtqueues struct are reallocated.
> 
> However, reallocating the Vhost memory table was missing, which
> likely causes at least one cross-NUMA accesses for every burst
> of packets.
> 
> This patch reallocates this table on the same NUMA node as the
> other metadata.
