Hi Len, Tony, A while back, I submitted a patch to expose the value of the _SUN method for CPUs. On ia64, the "physical id" field in /proc/cpuinfo isn't sufficient for some legacy HP ia64 platforms, as they do not have a modern SAL or PAL. http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/10/30/529 That patch wasn't so great because as Len pointed out, /proc/acpi is a deprecated interface. Here is another try that attempts to present a generic "slot" attribute in sysfs that leaves the various architectures free to implement however they like. Yes, I am aware of the physical_package_id attribute. However, that doesn't necessarily map to a slot on the system board. Additionally, it's broken on the same ia64 systems where /proc/cpuinfo is broken, because it's trying to read the same field. :-/ On ia64, I have a somewhat ugly implementation, where the ACPI processor driver is filling in the answer. I chose this approach because I couldn't figure out how to do it in the base CPU driver, since calling the _SUN method requires the ACPI interpreter to be initialized, and it didn't look like that was the case when we did things like identify_siblings(), for instance. Finally, there is something that looks odd in struct cpuinfo_ia64, where there are now two #ifdef CONFIG_SMP statements. I did this because adding the new 'slot' member created a 4-byte hole in the struct. It felt a little cleaner to me to move the 'int cpu;' member upwards to fill in the hole, and then my 'slot' could take the spot of 'cpu'. I'd like to get feedback on both: - the concept in general of creating a new sysfs attribute - the ia64 implementation, specifically Thanks. /ac From: Alex Chiang <achiang@xxxxxx> Physical slot information for CPUs is important for many reasons, including managability. For instance, if a platform supports physical CPU hotplug, it would be nice for the user to know which physical CPU module to actually unplug after offlining it. The "physical id" field in /proc/cpuinfo is broken/missing on older ia64 platforms that do not have modern firmware. /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuN/topology/physical_package_id exists, but is broken on those same platforms because it's simply reading the same field that would have been presented in /proc/cpuinfo. Create a 'slot' attribute and define an interface that may be populated via alternate sources, without breaking existing functionality. Implement this interface on ia64 by invoking the _SUN method on a per cpu basis. Leave other archs alone for now.
