I've encountered two problems with 2.6.16 and newer kernels on my API CS20 (dual 833MHz Alpha 21264b processors). The first is the kernel OOPSing because of a NULL pointer dereference while trying to populate SysFS with the CPU information. The other is that only one processor was being brought up. I've included a small Alpha-specific patch that fixes both problems. The first problem was caused by the CPUs never being properly registered using register_cpu(), the way it's done on other architectures. The second problem has to do with the removal of hwrpb_cpu_present_mask in arch/alpha/kernel/smp.c. In setup_smp() in the 2.6.15 kernel sources, hwrpb_cpu_present_mask has a bit set for each processor that is probed, and afterwards cpu_present_mask is set to the cpumask for the boot CPU. In the same function of the same file in the 2.6.16 sources, instead of hwrpb_cpu_present_mask being set, cpu_possible_map is updated for each probed CPU. cpu_present_mask is still set to the cpumask of the boot CPU afterwards. The problem lies in include/asm-alpha/smp.h, where cpu_possible_map is #define'd to be cpu_present_mask. Cleanups from: Ivan Kokshaysky <ink@jurassic.park.msu.ru> - cpu_present_mask and cpu_possible_map are essentially the same thing on alpha, as it doesn't support CPU hotplug; - allocate "struct cpu" only for present CPUs, like sparc64 does. Static array of "struct cpu" is just a waste of memory.
