| 2002-07-26 | [PATCH] Hot-plug CPU Boot Changes | Rusty Russell | |
| This patch alters the boot sequence to "plug in" each CPU, one at a time. You need the patch for each architecture, as well. The interface used to be "smp_boot_cpus()", "smp_commence()", and each arch implemented the "maxcpus" boot arg itself. With this patch, it is: smp_prepare_cpus(maxcpus): probe for cpus and set up cpu_possible(cpu). __cpu_up(cpu): called *after* initcalls, for each cpu where cpu_possible(cpu) is true. smp_cpus_done(maxcpus): called after every cpu has been brought up | |||
