Subject: 2 CPUs, but only one is used
Date: Sun, 17 Dec 2006 14:41:27 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20061217144127.579f01f0.pochini@shiny.it> (raw)

I have a dual G4 MDD mac running linux 2.6.19. When I boot with maxcpus=1 and
then I issue "echo 1 >/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online" the second CPU is
put online without errors, but it stays idle+wait=100% and of course
user+system+nice=0%. It works fine without maxcpus=1. No problems with 2.6.18.

I saw that there are some cpu hotplug related changes in 2.6.19, but I have
no access to a non-ppc dual cpu box to check if the problem also affects
other architectures right now.
