Adding the NUMA node id to struct rseq is a straightforward thing to do, and a good way to figure out if anything in the user-space ecosystem prevents extending struct rseq. This NUMA node id field allows memory allocators such as tcmalloc to take advantage of fast access to the current NUMA node id to perform NUMA-aware memory allocation. It can also be useful for implementing fast-paths for NUMA-aware user-space mutexes. It also allows implementing getcpu(2) purely in user-space.
