Subject: [PATCH v3 2/2] ppc/spapr: Initialize max_cpus limit to SPAPR_IRQ_NR_IPIS.
Date: Thu, 23 Nov 2023 11:27:33 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231123055733.1002890-3-harshpb@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20231123055733.1002890-1-harshpb@linux.ibm.com>
Initialize the machine specific max_cpus limit as per the maximum range
of CPU IPIs available. Keeping between 4096 to 8192 will throw IRQ not
free error due to XIVE/XICS limitation and keeping beyond 8192 will hit
assert in tcg_region_init or spapr_xive_claim_irq.
Logs:
Without patch fix:
