x86/numa: Add constraints check for nid parameters
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This patch adds constraint checks to the numa_set_distance()
function.

When the check triggers (this should not happen normally) it
emits a warning and avoids a store to a negative index in
numa_distance[] array - i.e. avoids memory corruption.

Negative ids can be passed when the pxm-to-nids mapping is not
properly filled while parsing the SRAT.
