This code consists of the following three patches. - Add the new interfaces for I/O APIC hot-add/hot-remove. The implementation of these interfaces depends on each architecture. - IA64 implementation of above-mentioned interfeces for I/O APIC hot-add/hot-remove. - Add I/O APIC hot-add support to ACPIPHP dirver. PCI root bridge hot-add will be fully functional with this patch. This will be also needed to support hot-add of p2p bridge hierarchy that contains I/O APICs. This code supports only hot-add for now. These patches support I/O APIC hot-plug on ia64 only for now. These are against 2.6.12-rc2-mm3. Thanks, Kenji Kaneshige
