KMEM_CACHE_ALLOC_NOD(9)             Memory Management in Linux            KMEM_CACHE_ALLOC_NOD(9)



NAME
       kmem_cache_alloc_node - Allocate an object on the specified node

SYNOPSIS
       void * kmem_cache_alloc_node(struct kmem_cache * cachep, gfp_t flags, int nodeid);

ARGUMENTS
       cachep
           The cache to allocate from.

       flags
           See kmalloc.

       nodeid
           node number of the target node.

DESCRIPTION
       Identical to kmem_cache_alloc but it will allocate memory on the given node, which can
       improve the performance for cpu bound structures.

       Fallback to other node is possible if __GFP_THISNODE is not set.
