[PATCH 3/3] MIPS: smp-cps: Don't BUG if a CPU fails to start

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

 



If there is no online CPU within a core which could receive the IPI to
start another VP in that core, a BUG() is triggered. Instead print a
warning and gracefully handle the failure such that the system remains
usable, albeit without the requested secondary CPU.
