Commit767507654c("arch_numa: switch over to numa_memblks") significantly cleaned up the NUMA registration code, but also dropped a significant check that was refusing to accept to configure a memblock with an invalid nid. On "quality hardware" such as my ThunderX machine, this results in a kernel that dies immediately: [ 0.000000] Booting Linux on physical CPU 0x0000000000 [0x431f0a10] [ 0.000000] Linux version 6.12.0-00013-g8920d74cf8db (maz@valley-girl) (gcc (Debian 12.2.0-14) 12.2.0, GNU ld (GNU Binutils for Debian) 2.40) #3872 SMP PREEMPT Wed Nov 27 15:25:49 GMT 2024 [ 0.000000] KASLR disabled due to lack of seed [ 0.000000] Machine model: Cavium ThunderX CN88XX board [ 0.000000] efi: EFI v2.4 by American Megatrends [ 0.000000] efi: ESRT=0xffce0ff18 SMBIOS 3.0=0xfffb0000 ACPI 2.0=0xffec60000 MEMRESERVE=0xffc905d98 [ 0.000000] esrt: Reserving ESRT space from 0x0000000ffce0ff18 to 0x0000000ffce0ff50.

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 reStructuredText 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.
