Subject: [PATCH] rdmsr_on_cpu, wrmsr_on_cpu
Date: Thu, 18 Jan 2007 17:45:27 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070118144527.GA6021@localhost.sw.ru> (raw)

There was OpenVZ specific bug rendering some cpufreq drivers unusable
on SMP. In short, when cpufreq code thinks it confined itself to
needed cpu by means of set_cpus_allowed() to execute rdmsr, some
"virtual cpu" feature can migrate process to anywhere. This triggers
bugons and does wrong things in general.

This got fixed by introducing rdmsr_on_cpu and wrmsr_on_cpu executing
rdmsr and wrmsr on given physical cpu by means of
smp_call_function_single().

Dave Jones mentioned cpufreq might be not only user of rdmsr_on_cpu()
and wrmsr_on_cpu(), so I'm going to put them into arch/i386/lib/
(after patch gets some more testing othen than compile and UP run)

Does this looks OK?
