| |
This is yet another resend of my somewhat stale smp_call_function_on_cpu patches with suggestions taken from Matthew Wilcox and James Bottomley to recode smp_call_function as an smp_call_function_on_cpu user. The main reason for the resend this time is that i haven't changed the number of parameters to smp_call_function and hence _not_ breaking anything.
The purpose of smp_call_function_on_cpu is to invoke a function call on an arbitrary remote cpu or group of cpus utilising Interprocessor Interrupts. At present Alpha has a version (which i based this on) and IA64 has one called smp_call_function_single. This just makes it a general kernel function and part of the SMP API.
The i386 version has been tested on 8way P3-700 (courtesy of OSDL)
PS: Andrew, no the email address change isn't a killfile/procmail evasion tactic ;)
Linus please consider...
