Hi, David, hi everyone! I booted recent kernel on Ultra2, while probing CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_ALL option enabled, and found that cpu_possible_mask is sparse. The cpuinfo is: CPU0: online CPU2: online Other info is: PROMLIB: Sun IEEE Boot Prom 'OBP 3.11.25 1998/01/16 12:22' Sun Ultra 60 UPA/PCI (2 X UltraSPARC-II 296MHz) Who knows what's the reason of it's sparse?
