I have a point here though that if the processor is there, but is unusable (what "disabled" means as the ACPI spec says), meaning bad maybe, then with physical hot plug it can certainly be made usable and I think it should be taken into consideration (and into configuration). It should be counted as possible at least, with hot plug, because it represent existing socket. > > initialized.

Yes it is indeed :) because it is masking absent processors as disabled. And again I believe (correct me if I'm wrong) the disabled processors should be counted as possible with hot plug (physical) in any case. This patch is not actually covering physical hot plug, all it does is making room for say hot swap of failed processors. How about making platform hooks here for non-conforming (but not prohibited!) hot plug methods. In fact the one used now on ES7000 is very intuitive and based on assumption that "disabled" case is handled properly. > > > > apicid = mpc_apic_id(m, translation_table[mpc_record]); > > > > @@ -190,11 +192,13 @@ static void __init MP_processor_info (st > > return; > > } > > > > +#ifndef CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU > > if (num_processors >= maxcpus) { > > printk(KERN_WARNING "WARNING: maxcpus limit of > %i reached." > > " Processor ignored.\n", maxcpus); > > return; > > } > > +#endif > > num_processors++; > > ver = m->mpc_apicver; > > > > diff -puN arch/i386/kernel/smpboot.c~hotcpu-i386 > arch/i386/kernel/smpboot.c > > --- > linux-2.6.13-rc6-mm2/arch/i386/kernel/smpboot.c~hotcpu-i386 > 2005-08-31 04:17:20.924024616 -0700 > > +++ linux-2.6.13-rc6-mm2-root/arch/i386/kernel/smpboot.c > 2005-08-31 04:21:49.474198784 -0700 > > @@ -1003,9 +1003,10 @@ int __devinit smp_prepare_cpu(int cpu) > > struct warm_boot_cpu_info info; > > struct work_struct task; > > int apicid, ret; > > + extern u8 bios_cpu_apicid[NR_CPUS]; > > > > lock_cpu_hotplug(); > > - apicid = x86_cpu_to_apicid[cpu]; > > + apicid = bios_cpu_apicid[cpu]; > > if (apicid == BAD_APICID) { > > ret = -ENODEV; > > goto exit; > > diff -puN arch/i386/mach-default/topology.c~hotcpu-i386 > arch/i386/mach-default/topology.c > > --- > linux-2.6.13-rc6-mm2/arch/i386/mach-default/topology.c~hotc > pu-i386 2005-08-31 04:17:20.957019600 -0700 > > +++ > linux-2.6.13-rc6-mm2-root/arch/i386/mach-default/topology.c > 2005-08-31 04:22:13.020619184 -0700 > > @@ -76,7 +76,7 @@ static int __init topology_init(void) > > for_each_online_node(i) > > arch_register_node(i); > > > > - for_each_present_cpu(i) > > + for_each_cpu(i) > > Nope.

Actually, it will only create as many nodes as listed in ACPI (enabled or disabled).

I'm quite agree with you on proper implementation of physical hot plug, but "disabled" case has to be handled correctly, and it should be some flexibility built in. I don't think there is enough right now even with proper ACPI based implementation.
