[...] BTW: smp_call_function() simply returns 0 and smp_call_function_single() simply returns -EBUSY when !SMP. These appear to be just some ad hoc values. IMHO, we should be going BUG() in both these cases because "other" CPUs for !SMP are undefined / meaningless.
79974a0e4c6be6e9a3717b4c5a5d5c44c36b1653 from a couple weeks back (discussed on http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/5/14/68 i.e. [patch] Let smp_call_function_single return -EBUSY.) introduced this behaviour. [ Adding Heiko Carstens, Andrew and David Miller to Cc: list. ] I realized a warning would be more appropriate for this case than a BUG at the last moment ... this doesn't quite meet Linus' "You killed my father; prepare to die!" criterion :-) --- The smp_call_function{_single} functions are used to run given function on all {or speicified} *other* CPUs. For UP systems, "other" CPUs simply don't exist, so we flag such incorrect usage of these functions using a WARNING. Also, -EBUSY is generally returned by arch implementations when they find that target_cpu == current_cpu, which is not a comparable case to the !SMP case. Use -EINVAL instead, similar to what powerpc does for !cpu_online(target), which is somewhat more analogous.
