P2P is supported between GPUs that belong to different NUMA nodes

[themoonstone]

I've execute the simpleP2P on my server (GPU-L4, with the following topology) which GPU0 and GPU1 belongs to different numa nodes.

	GPU0	GPU1	CPU Affinity	NUMA Affinity	GPU NUMA ID
GPU0	 X 	SYS	0-7,32-39	0		N/A
GPU1	SYS	 X 	16-23,48-55	2		N/A

And I obtained the following results. Why is that? How does it support P2P (Peer-to-Peer) connections between GPUs that are on different PCIe root complexes?

Do you mind trying the following commands to see what the driver says is supported?

$ nvidia-smi topo -p2p r
$ nvidia-smi topo -p2p w
