Subject: [PATCH] Hotplug CPUs for i386 2.5.44
Date: Mon, 28 Oct 2002 19:04:15 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20021028080437.DE7112C0E3@lists.samba.org> (raw)

Doesn't apply to -mm5 because someone did wierd things with the CPU
placement in driverfs, which clashes with this patch which moves it to
kernel/cpu.c...

Usage:
1) Apply patch, and boot resulting kernel.
2) echo 0 > /devices/root/sys/cpu0/online
3) echo 1 > /devices/root/sys/cpu0/online

The CPU actually spins with interrupts off, doing cpu_relax() and
polling a variable.  It's basically useful for testing the unplug
infrastructure and benchmarking.

Cheers!
Rusty.
