From: Mike Travis Date: Wed, 17 Dec 2008 01:33:52 +0000 (-0800) Subject: x86 smp: modify send_IPI_mask interface to accept cpumask_t pointers X-Git-Tag: v2.6.29-rc1~538^2~21^2~14 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e7986739a76cde5079da08809d8bbc6878387ae0;p=pandora-kernel.git x86 smp: modify send_IPI_mask interface to accept cpumask_t pointers Impact: cleanup, change parameter passing * Change genapic interfaces to accept cpumask_t pointers where possible. * Modify external callers to use cpumask_t pointers in function calls. * Create new send_IPI_mask_allbutself which is the same as the send_IPI_mask functions but removes smp_processor_id() from list. This removes another common need for a temporary cpumask_t variable. * Functions that used a temp cpumask_t variable for: cpumask_t allbutme = cpu_online_map; cpu_clear(smp_processor_id(), allbutme); if (!cpus_empty(allbutme)) ... become: if (!cpus_equal(cpu_online_map, cpumask_of_cpu(cpu))) ... * Other minor code optimizations (like using cpus_clear instead of CPU_MASK_NONE, etc.) Applies to linux-2.6.tip/master.
