This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled s390/topology: call set_sched_topology early to the 3.17-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: s390-topology-call-set_sched_topology-early.patch and it can be found in the queue-3.17 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 48e9a6c1f54695609b709bf674aac133794ada00 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 24 Sep 2014 16:37:20 +0200 Subject: s390/topology: call set_sched_topology early From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 48e9a6c1f54695609b709bf674aac133794ada00 upstream. The call to topology_init is too late for the set_sched_topology call. The initial scheduling domain structure has already been established with default topology array. Use the smp_cpus_done() call to get the s390 specific topology array registered early enough.
