In the patch, they both need mapping to a logic cpu.
As you said, the 'enabled' controls extra functions:

1. num_processors parameter
2. physid_set method
3. set_cpu_present method

Thank you very much for your advice. That solution is very good for me.

I thought about the differences between them carefully. Firstly, I
intend to separate out the functionality in two functions. It's simple
but not good. Then, I try to put them together to judge just once.

After, considering the judgment statement independence and the order of
assignment. I remove all the "if (enabled)" code and do the unified
judgment like this:

@@ -2180,12 +2176,19 @@ int __generic_processor_info(int apicid, int
version, bool enabled)
apic->x86_32_early_logical_apicid(cpu);
#endif
set_cpu_possible(cpu, true);
- if (enabled)
+
+ if (enabled){
+ num_processors++;
+ physid_set(apicid, phys_cpu_present_map);
set_cpu_present(cpu, true);
+ }else{
+ disabled_cpus++;
+ }

return cpu;
}

I hope that patch could consistent with your advice. And I will submit
the detailed modification in the next version patches.

Thanks,

Dou.
