Subject: [PATCH v3] powerpc/pseries: Move CPU DLPAR into the kernel
Date: Wed, 16 Dec 2015 14:46:02 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5671CD8A.8000500@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
To better support CPU hotplug in PowerKVM and PowerVM environments, the
handling of CPU dlpar should be done entirely in the kernel. This will allow
a common entry point to be used for PowerVM and PowerKVM CPU dlpar requests.
For both environments the entry point is the same one introduced in a previous
patch set that moved memory hotplug into the kernel. This entry point accepts
a rtas hotplug event which is either constructed when using the
/sys/kernel/dlpar interface or is passed to the kernel when handling a
ras epow interrupt.
-Nathan
Patch 1/6:
- Consolidate cpu hotplug code from pseries/dlpar.c to pseries/hotplug-cpu.c
Patch 2/6:
- Factor out common code pieces for both environments
Patch 3/6:
- Update cpu dlpar error recovery
Patch 4/6:
- Add cpu hotplug remove capability
Patch 5/6:
- Add cpu hotplug add capability
Patch 6/6:
- Enable sysfs interface for cpu hotplug
