My company is developing a critical telephony system and are looking for the opportunity to deploy on Intel/Linux (as well as Sparc/Solaris). I've found some SPARC and Intel platforms (surprisingly one from Motorola!) that have these hot swap capabilities under Compact PCI, but I'm having a more difficult time getting hard information about Linux support for such things, especially in terms of hot swap cpus rather than just devices. I've heard of a hig-availability linux implementation called Hard Hat and other efforts in the works to provide this capability at both the kernel and application level but I haven't been able to find any hard information about these rumoured systems.
Is there an official kernel effort going on to support these features? How about a semi-official one? I'd appreciate any comments and pointers regarding this...
