Subject: [PATCH 1/2] ACPI: Check the returned value of set_cpus_allowed_ptr before T-state operation
Date: Mon, 10 Jan 2011 16:35:44 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1294648545-32193-1-git-send-email-yakui.zhao@intel.com> (raw)
From: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@intel.com>
Now before it executes the T-state operation on one CPU, it will try to
migrate to the target CPU. Especially this is required on the system that
uses the MSR_IA32_THERMAL_CONTROL register to switch T-state.
But unfortunately it doesn't check whether the migration is successful or not.
In such case we will get/set the incorrect T-state on the offline CPU as
it fails in the migration to the offline CPU.
