      [IA64] Provide ACPI fixup for /proc/cpuinfo/physical_id · fe086a7b
      Alex Chiang authored 
      

Legacy HP ia64 platforms currently cannot provide
/proc/cpuinfo/physical_id due to legacy SAL/PAL implementations.
However, that physical topology information can be obtained
via ACPI.

Provide an interface that gives ACPI one last chance to provide
physical_id for these legacy platforms. This logic only comes
into play iff:

- ACPI actually provides slot information for the CPU
- we lack a valid socket_id

Otherwise, we don't do anything.

Since x86 uses the ACPI processor driver as well, we provide a nop
stub function for arch_fix_phys_package_id() in asm-x86/topology.h

      [IA64] tree-wide: Misc __cpu{initdata, init, exit} annotations · db6a5cef
      Satyam Sharma authored 
      

* palinfo.c:

palinfo_cpu_notifier is a CPU hotplug notifier_block, and can be
marked __cpuinitdata, and the callback function palinfo_cpu_callback()
itself can be marked __cpuinit. create_palinfo_proc_entries() is only
called from __cpuinit callback or general __init code, therefore a
candidate for __cpuinit itself. remove_palinfo_proc_entries() is only
called from __cpuinit callback or general __exit code, therefore a
candidate for __cpuexit.

* salinfo.c:

The CPU hotplug notifier_block can be __cpuinitdata. The callback
salinfo_cpu_callback() is incorrectly marked __devinit -- it must
be __cpuinit instead.

* topology.c:

cache_sysfs_init() is only called at device_initcall() time so marking
it as __cpuinit is wrong and wasteful. It should be unconditionally
__init. Also cleanup reference to hotplug notifier callback function
from this function and replace with cache_add_dev(), which could also
enable us to use other tricks to replace __cpuinit{data} annotations,
as recently discussed on this list.

cache_shared_cpu_map_setup() is only ever called from __cpuinit-marked
functions hence both its definitions (SMP or !SMP) are candidates for
__cpuinit itself. Also all_cpu_cache_info can be __cpuinitdata because
only referenced from __cpuinit code.

      Add suspend-related notifications for CPU hotplug · 8bb78442
      Rafael J. Wysocki authored 
      

Since nonboot CPUs are now disabled after tasks and devices have been
frozen and the CPU hotplug infrastructure is used for this purpose, we need
special CPU hotplug notifications that will help the CPU-hotplug-aware
subsystems distinguish normal CPU hotplug events from CPU hotplug events
related to a system-wide suspend or resume operation in progress.  This
patch introduces such notifications and causes them to be used during
suspend and resume transitions.  It also changes all of the
CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems to take these notifications into consideration
(for now they are handled in the same way as the corresponding "normal"
ones).

      [PATCH] Export cpu topology in sysfs · 69dcc991
      Zhang, Yanmin authored 
      

The patch implements cpu topology exportation by sysfs.

Items (attributes) are similar to /proc/cpuinfo.

1) /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/physical_package_id:
	represent the physical package id of  cpu X;
2) /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/core_id:
	represent the cpu core id to cpu X;
3) /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/thread_siblings:
	represent the thread siblings to cpu X in the same core;
4) /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/core_siblings:
	represent the thread siblings to cpu X in the same physical package;

To implement it in an architecture-neutral way, a new source file,
driver/base/topology.c, is to export the 5 attributes.

If one architecture wants to support this feature, it just needs to
implement 4 defines, typically in file include/asm-XXX/topology.h.
The 4 defines are:
#define topology_physical_package_id(cpu)
#define topology_core_id(cpu)
#define topology_thread_siblings(cpu)
#define topology_core_siblings(cpu)

The type of **_id is int.
The type of siblings is cpumask_t.

To be consistent on all architectures, the 4 attributes should have
deafult values if their values are unavailable. Below is the rule.

1) physical_package_id: If cpu has no physical package id, -1 is the
default value.

2) core_id: If cpu doesn't support multi-core, its core id is 0.

3) thread_siblings: Just include itself, if the cpu doesn't support
HT/multi-thread.

4) core_siblings: Just include itself, if the cpu doesn't support
multi-core and HT/Multi-thread.

So be careful when declaring the 4 defines in include/asm-XXX/topology.h.

If an attribute isn't defined on an architecture, it won't be exported.

Thank Nathan, Greg, Andi, Paul and Venki.

The patch provides defines for i386/x86_64/ia64.

      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
