So this is not accounted for in any of the memory sizes, right? Shouldn't this be reflected in some of those virDomainDefGetMemory*() functions? It probably depends on the answer to my previous question. Wow, this seems highly configurable. How come none of these options needs to be changed? That doesn't seem right. As you might've noticed in the code, we don't do yoda conditions. The virAsprintf() function should shorten this function a bit. This looks like it duplicates some of the code that is there already. Couldn't this be handled more cleanly? Could there be only part of that memory shared and not all of it? Not aligned. So the only difference to setting this up with hugepages is that the mem-path is not set to hugetlbfs mountpoint? And it automatically implies numa node? If the numa node is there automatically (which could be), why not just using the: <cpu> <numa> <cell ... memAccess='shared'/>?

This new code you're adding should only be used when a non-NUMA guest config is requested, and it should be using the -mem-path command line argument to set the file - not = creating a NUMA topology in a non-NUMA requested guest.
