The project 'NUMA Support in MariaDB' is still incomplete and like I mentioned in my mails to my mentors, I am still willing to work on it and see it through to the end.
Great, thanks!
Most of the minor tasks along with some important tasks are already complete. The important part that remains is to work on the task-queue interface between SQL and InnoDB. I was unable to implement this for the NUMA case and I won't be able to complete it without some help. So, do you think you can connect me with someone from the MariaDB/InnoDB/MySQL team who is an expert of this interface? I will need someone who has a very good understanding of the present structure to help me come up with a way to implement this for the NUMA case. If you do find someone who can be of help, please see to it that since GSoC is over (and otherwise as well), it shouldn't be a Student-Mentor kind of thing, but more like two or more developers working together trying to come up with a solution to this problem.
Why wouldn't you ask the question on the maria-developers@ mailing list? I'll try to make sure that it'll be answered.
However, if you are unable to connect me with someone who has expertise in the handler interface, I am afraid I won't be able to complete this project on my own. In this case, would you like me to create a pull request of the work done so far ( https://github.com/theGodlessLakra/server/tree/NUMA_Support). Although NUMA Support is incomplete, merging this code to the MariaDB code base will allow other developers to continue working on this.
Is it sufficiently complete to be useful as is? Regards, Sergei Chief Architect MariaDB and security@mariadb.org
