2.6.16rc5 'found' an extra CPU.

This amused me.

I guess the '255' has confused something.

This made my 'bug of the day' :)

Digging further. I notice more oddities (or maybe I've just misunderstood this -- corrections welcomed)

Neither of these CPUs are HT / dual-core, so shouldn't these be the same ?

Ditto ?

Probably related to Ashok's ACPI CPU hotplug patches.

What's the full bootup log?

It looks like a standard dual socket machine. Each CPU is a sibling of its own only.

-Andi

Could be..

SMP: Allowing 4 CPUs, 2 hotplug CPUs

I thought we chopped out the heuristic to do NRCPUS/2 as hotplug? (*checks*... yes, we did).
This machine isn't hotplug cpu capable (its an early tyan 2885) so I'd be surprised if the bios is advertising that ability.

It looks like 'num_processors' is incorrect somehow.

It's because of the two disabled CPUs. We decreed at some point that disabled CPUs mean hotpluggable CPUs. But it's doing this for some time so you probably only noticed now.

All is ok. Sorry for blaming you wrongly, Ashok.

-Andi

*boggle*, there really are only two single-core CPUs in there, with no empty sockets. It's an early stepping of the motherboard too that supposedly doesn't support dual-core. So why these are present at all, let alone 'disabled' is a mystery to me.

logrotate ate the old logs, so I don't have any old bootlogs to grep through, but I'll take your word for it :)

Why ACPI decides to create 3 processor entries is still odd though.

Dave

It's probably for the second cores. Instead of rewriting the tables dynamically they just change the enable/disable bit. That's pretty common actually, often seen on laptops too.

With Quadcores it will get interesting I guess.

If you had to write in 16bit x86 asm you would likely use such tricks too ;-)

It should be four.

-Andi

Then I guess the ACPI guys have an off-by-one bug somewhere ;)

Dave

Phew!..

The ACPI hotplug code isnt in 2.6.15-rc* yet. It should be in the next -mm when Andrew rolls the next mm.

But the 3 entries seem weird, we should only see 2 sysfs entries in /sys/devices/system/cpu and just 2 entries in proc/acpi/processor as well.

sysfs gets it right.
