>From 48bbf44a96676ce6f520a408378730c976e9a11e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: James Bottomley <JBottomley@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 8 May 2013 14:05:34 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [PARISC] fix WARNING: at kernel/cpu/idle.c:96 On PA-RISC (and presumably any other arch that doesn't implement its own arch_cpu_idle), we get this spurious boot warning. The problem is that the way the idle task is selected initially using the weak arch_cpu_idle() in idle.c causes us to enter this place once with interrupts enabled. Fix this by disabling interrupts in the weak arch_cpu_idle() code. Reviewed-by: Srivatsa S. Bhat <srivatsa.bhat@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <JBottomley@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- Thomas, I'm getting a bit impatient: this is a clear bug in the cpu idle code and we keep getting reports of this as a boot crash on parisc. If you don't push it through your tree, I'll take it through the parisc one. diff --git a/kernel/cpu/idle.c b/kernel/cpu/idle.c index d5585f5..0a4d11e 100644 --- a/kernel/cpu/idle.c +++ b/kernel/cpu/idle.c @@ -58,6 +58,7 @@ void __weak arch_cpu_idle_dead(void) { } void __weak arch_cpu_idle(void) { cpu_idle_force_poll = 1; + local_irq_enable(); } /* -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-parisc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
