The good news is that you're working on this, the bad news is that all this code is slated for the scrap heap :-) Thomas is currently in the process of doing a massive overhaul of the hotplug code, included in that would be the stuff you're touching. Every architecture does this hand-shake differently and probably buggy, all that needs to move into generic code. The only bits needed in the arch code are the cpu wakeup and initial trampoline, the rest should be generic. I'm not quite sure how far along he is, but it would be awesome if you could help him out somehow. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-doc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
