[PATCH] ACPI: PPTT: Inform user that table offset used for Physical processor node ID

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

 



If the the Processor ID valid is not set for a Physical Processor Package
node, then the node table offset is used as a substitute. As such, we
may get info like this from sysfs:

root@(none)$ pwd
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/topology
root@(none)$ more physical_package_id
56

Inform the user of this in the bootlog, as it is much less than ideal, and
they can remedy this in their FW.
