Initially, the per-cpu pagesets of each zone are set to the boot pagesets.
The real pagesets are allocated later but before that happens, page
allocations do occur and the numa stats for the boot pagesets get
incremented since they are common to all zones at that point.
The real pagesets, however, are allocated for the populated zones only.
Unpopulated zones, like those associated with memory-less nodes, continue
using the boot pageset and end up skewing the numa stats of the
corresponding node.
E.g.
$ numactl -H
available: 2 nodes (0-1)
node 0 cpus: 0 1 2 3
node 0 size: 0 MB
node 0 free: 0 MB
node 1 cpus: 4 5 6 7
node 1 size: 8131 MB
node 1 free: 6980 MB
node distances:
node 0 1
0: 10 40
1: 40 10
$ numastat
node0 node1
numa_hit 108 56495
numa_miss 0 0
numa_foreign 0 0
interleave_hit 0 4537
local_node 108 31547
other_node 0 24948
Hence, the boot pageset stats need to be cleared after the real pagesets
are allocated.
After this point, the stats of the boot pagesets do not change as page
allocations requested for a memory-less node will either fail (if
__GFP_THISNODE is used) or get fulfilled by a preferred zone of a
different node based on the fallback zonelist.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
