So, the original code didn't have this failure mode, why is this
different for the new code?
It is not different. Since max_logical_cpuid is new, this is ensure it won't
go beyond NR_CPUS.
If the above condition can happen, the original code should have had a
similar check as above, right? Sure, max_logical_cpuid is a new thing
but that doesn't seem to change whether the above condition can happen
or not, no?
Right, indeed. It is in
generic_processor_info()
|--> if (num_processors >= nr_cpu_ids)
Will remove my new added check.
Thanks.
Thanks.
