From 10ccaf178b2b961d8bca252d647ed7ed8aae2a20 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Streetman Date: Fri, 31 Oct 2014 15:41:34 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: use device_online/offline() instead of cpu_up/down() In powerpc pseries platform dlpar operations, use device_online() and device_offline() instead of cpu_up() and cpu_down(). Calling cpu_up/down() directly does not update the cpu device offline field, which is used to online/offline a cpu from sysfs. Calling device_online/offline() instead keeps the sysfs cpu online value correct. The hotplug lock, which is required to be held when calling device_online/offline(), is already held when dlpar_online/offline_cpu() are called, since they are called only from cpu_probe|release_store(). This patch fixes errors on phyp (PowerVM) systems that have cpu(s) added/removed using dlpar operations; without this patch, the /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuN/online nodes do not correctly show the online state of added/removed cpus.
