[PATCH v1 4/4] ACPI: scan: Make acpi_processor_add() check the device enabled bit

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx>

Modify acpi_processor_add() return an error if _STA returns the enabled
bit clear for the given processor device, so as to avoid using processors
that don't decode their resources, as per the ACPI specification. [1]
