From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: kevin@bracey.fi (Kevin Bracey) Date: Sat, 6 Apr 2013 15:37:03 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] cpu_kill/cpu_die coordination Message-ID: <1365251824-4852-1-git-send-email-kevin@bracey.fi> To: linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org List-Id: linux-arm-kernel.lists.infradead.org I've been having problems handshaking between cpu_kill and cpu_die, due to the fact that they don't always occur together. It seems to me that this patch is basically what's needed. I'm working on 3.4-based code, but the logic doesn't seem to have changed since then. Searches didn't show much activity in this area - it appears that I'm on the only upstream platform actually implementing cpu_kill, which may explain why it's not been noticed. Only related topic I found was this discussion: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/1898311/ which could maybe be short-circuited by this patch.
