From 28bb9ee13aa0ee4c57dc3568f539cc84920b43aa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "jschopp@austin.ibm.com" Date: Mon, 1 Feb 2010 12:50:48 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: Add static fields to ibm,client-architecture call This patch adds 2 fields to the ibm_architecture_vec array. The first of these fields indicates the number of cores which Linux can boot. It does not account for SMT, so it may result in cpus assigned to Linux which cannot be booted. A second patch follows that dynamically updates this for SMT. The second field just indicates that our OS is Linux, and not another OS. The system may or may not use this hint to performance tune settings for Linux. Signed-off-by: Joel Schopp Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt --- Reading git-format-patch failed
