+ * A system can have three types of NUMA topology:
+ * NUMA_DIRECT: all nodes are directly connected, or not a NUMA system
+ * NUMA_GLUELESS_MESH: some nodes reachable through intermediary nodes
+ * NUMA_BACKPLANE: nodes can reach other nodes through a backplane
+ *
+ * The difference between a glueless mesh topology and a backplane
+ * topology lies in whether communication between not directly
+ * connected nodes goes through intermediary nodes (where programs
+ * could run), or through backplane controllers. This affects
+ * placement of programs.
+ *
+ * The type of topology can be discerned with the following tests:
+ * - If the maximum distance between any nodes is 1 hop, the system
+ * is directly connected.
+ * - If for two nodes A and B, located N > 1 hops away from each other,
+ * there is an intermediary node C, which is < N hops away from both
+ * nodes A and B, the system is a glueless mesh.
