Facilitating access to memory locality domain information

Abstract:

Processing within a computing environment is facilitated by ascertaining locality domain information of a unit of memory to processing capability within the computing environment. Once ascertained, the locality domain information of the unit of memory may be cached in a data structure to facilitate one or more subsequent lookups of the locality domain information associated with one or more affinity evaluations of the unit of memory to processing capability of the computing environment.
