A number of nodes which are used in the alloc/free paths is set based on num_possible_cpus() in a system. Please note a high limit threshold though is fixed and corresponds to 128 nodes. For 32-bit or single core systems an access to a global vmap heap is not balanced. Such small systems do not suffer from lock contentions due to low number of CPUs. In such case the nr_nodes is equal to 1.

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.
