Recently, we hoped to make the possible CPU count more accurate for Kernel. I stuck on the issue how do I run acpi_early_init() _before_ setup_percpu() is invoked. So send these insignificant patches first. This patchset does this things: - two document-related work(the 1th and 2th patch), - two cleapup work (the 3th and 5th patch) - a bug fix for CPU hotplug(4th patch) Dou Liyang (5): x86/smpboot: Add the missing description of possible_cpus x86/cpu_hotplug: Update the link of cpu_hotplug.rst x86/smpboot: Make the check code more clear in prefill_possible_map() acpi/processor: Fix the return value of acpi_processor_ids_walk() acpi/processor: Make the acpi_duplicate_processor_id() static Documentation/00-INDEX | 2 - Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt | 5 ++ Documentation/cputopology.txt | 10 ++-- Documentation/x86/x86_64/cpu-hotplug-spec | 2 +- arch/x86/kernel/smpboot.c | 31 +++++++----- drivers/acpi/acpi_processor.c | 66 ++++++++++++------------- include/linux/acpi.h | 3 -- 7 files changed, 62 insertions(+), 57 deletions(-) -- 2.14.3 -- 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
