Yes. Ashok sent another patch to fix this part. Lkml subjectline [patch 1/8] x86_64: Reintroduce clustered_apic_check() for x86_64 >> >> +#ifdef CONFIG_X86_GENERICARCH >> + generic_apic_probe(*cmdline_p); >> +#endif > >This move looks risky because ACPI can already switch subarchs.

We also saw some potential issues with ACPI ioapic detection on other sub-archs after this change, late yesteraday. I am right now reworking this patch. Andrew: Until I send a reworked patch can you remove these two patces from the mm. Thanks. 1) [PATCH] Automatically enable bigsmp when we have more than 8 CPUs 2) [patch 1/8] x86_64: Reintroduce clustered_apic_check() for x86_64 Thanks, Venki - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
