With Feb 27 next tree I am seeing inconsistent results on a CPU remove DLPAR operation on a POWER8 LPAR. After the cpu remove operation the SMT capability of the LPAR is disabled. # uname -r 4.10.0-next-20170227 # ppc64_cpu --smt SMT=8 # lscpu Architecture: ppc64le Byte Order: Little Endian CPU(s): 16 On-line CPU(s) list: 0-15 Thread(s) per core: 8 Core(s) per socket: 1 Socket(s): 2 NUMA node(s): 4 Model: 2.1 (pvr 004b 0201) Model name: POWER8 (architected), altivec supported L1d cache: 64K L1i cache: 32K L2 cache: 512K L3 cache: 8192K NUMA node0 CPU(s): NUMA node1 CPU(s): 0-7 NUMA node3 CPU(s): NUMA node4 CPU(s): 8-15 After a DLPAR operation (CPU remove : 2 to 1) all the cpu seems to be removed. at the end of it I also see a warning @lib/refcount.c:128 SMT capability is show as disabled. It should have remained at 8. # ppc64_cpu —smt Machine is not SMT capable lscpu o/p shows 8 online cpus, with threads per core as 8.
