Subject: Re: [PATCH] ACPI: processor: only call _PDC on physically present processors
Date: Tue, 19 Jan 2010 23:42:29 -0500 (EST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.LFD.2.00.1001192340140.4265@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100114201214.GH4545@ldl.fc.hp.com>

A couple reasons to not get excited about this solution.

I don't like the processor enumeration code moving to a file called 
processor_pdc.c.

Too big for rc4 -- a logical revert to evaluate PDC when
we did in 2.6.32 would be more attractive at this point.


thanks,
Len Brown, Intel Open Source Technology Center
