[PATCH] i386/x86_64: Don't IPI to offline cpus on shutdown

From: Zwane Mwaikambo
Date: Sun Nov 27 2005 - 05:00:34 EST


http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5203

There is a small race during SMP shutdown between the processor issuing
the shutdown and the other processors clearing themselves off the
cpu_online_map as they do this without using the normal cpu offline
synchronisation. To avoid this we should wait for all the other processors
to clear their corresponding bits and then proceed. This way we can safely
make the cpu_online test in smp_send_reschedule, it's safe during normal
runtime as smp_send_reschedule is called with a lock held / preemption
disabled.
