Cover letter [PATCH v7 0/6] SMP and CPU hotplug support for Meson8/Meson8b
Quoted 6 lines · Martin Blumenstingl

This patchset adds support for booting the secondary CPU cores (and taking them offline again) on Amlogic Meson8 and Meson8b SoCs. It is based on an earlier version from Carlo Caione - this helped me a lot to get a better understanding of how SMP/CPU hotplug works (compared to the code found in Amlogic's GPL kernel sources from year 2015).
