Its helpful to be able to lookup the acpi_processor_id associated

As I pointed out in the earlier version, this patch is not required.
The acpi_id stored in the acpi_processor can be used for this.
Won't the below change make it work ? I can't think of any reason why it
shouldn't.

So, I only noticed your previous email last night on the mail archive, as I was applying your review/ack tags and couldn't find a response for this patch, seem the spam/etc filters need some further tweaking!

At that point, I was pretty sure the suggestion wasn't going to work out of the box as a lot of this code is running fairly early in the boot process. I spent a bit of time and plugged the change in to verify that assertion, and yes the per_cpu processor/acpi bits aren't setup early enough to be used by much of this code. It is being called from init_cpu_topology()/smp_prepare_cpus() which precedes do_basic_setup/do_initcalls() which is what runs the acpi_init() sequence which ends up eventually allocating the required data structures. So without restructuring the core boot sequence, this seems like a reasonable solution.


Thanks,



Regards,
Sudeep
