Hi Rob,
This change is breaking some powerpc machines, ...

Previously we just looked for any node with a type of "cpu", but now
we're using for_each_of_cpu_node(), which does:
for (; next; next = next->sibling) {
if (!(of_node_name_eq(next, "cpu") ||
(next->type && !of_node_cmp(next->type, "cpu"))))
continue;
if (!__of_device_is_available(next))
continue;
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
if (of_node_get(next))
break;
}
ie. the available check is new.
On this machine the 2nd CPU is not marked as available:
root@p5020ds:/proc/device-tree/cpus/PowerPC,e5500@1# lsprop status
status "disabled"
This has the effect of preventing the SMP code from finding the 2nd CPU
in order to bring it up (in smp_85xx_start_cpu()). And so only the boot
CPU is onlined.
The device tree is built from a dts:
arch/powerpc/boot/dts/fsl/p5020si-pre.dtsi
But we don't set the status in there, so presumably u-boot is changing
the status during boot? (not a u-boot expert).
We could work around this in the platform code presumably, but I'm
worried this might break other things as well. You didn't mention the
addition of the available check in the change log so I wonder if it was
deliberate or just seemed like a good idea?
cheers
