The patch titled X86: uv: xpc_make_first_contact hang due to not accepting ACTIVE state has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was x86-uv-xpc_make_first_contact-hang-due-to-not-accepting-active-state.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: X86: uv: xpc_make_first_contact hang due to not accepting ACTIVE state From: Robin Holt <holt@xxxxxxx> Many times while the initial connection is being made, the contacted partition will send back both the ACTIVATING and the ACTIVE remote_act_state changes in very close succescion. The 1/4 second delay in the make first contact loop is large enough to nearly always miss the ACTIVATING state change. Since either state indicates the remote partition has acknowledged our state change, accept either.
