Subject: [PATCH 0/2] more migration vs CPU hotplug fixes
Date: Thu, 18 Jul 2019 14:29:38 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190718192940.16103-1-nathanl@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
Despite recent fixes, userspace-initiated CPU hotplug still can
destructively race with the migration code's CPU state manipulations
on the destination. Also, since such manipulations can consist of
mass-onlining and -offlining half or more of the CPUs in the system,
take care to reschedule when needed.

powerpc/rtas: use device model APIs and serialization during LPM
powerpc/rtas: allow rescheduling while changing cpu states
