[PATCH 4.18 24/79] x86/cpu/intel: Evaluate smp_num_siblings early

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

 



4.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Make use of the new early detection function to initialize smp_num_siblings
on the boot cpu before the MP-Table or ACPI/MADT scan happens. That's
required for force disabling SMT.
