Does the ACPI core already warn, or did that go missing with this separate code path? > +static void __init acpi_smp_init_cpus(void) > +{ > + int cpu; > + > + for_each_possible_cpu(cpu) { > + if (cpu_acpi_read_ops(cpu) != 0) > + continue; > + > + cpu_ops[cpu]->cpu_init(NULL, cpu); > + } > +} > + > +void __init smp_init_cpus(void) > +{ > + if (acpi_disabled) > + of_smp_init_cpus(); > + else > + acpi_smp_init_cpus(); I'm liking these deeply split code paths less and less every time I see them. :( I would prefer to set up shared state in separate functions, but keep the control flow the same. Right now you're splitting it completely. I.e. split data setup between the two, but do the loop calling cpu_init() the same way. (Yes, that will require you to refactor the DT code path a bit too...) -Olof -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
