Subject[PATCH v8 0/9] Parallel CPU bringup for x86_64
Date
The major change over v7 is fixing CPU0 hotplug not working as reported by
Paul E. McKenney using rcu torture tests. This is fixed by setting up the
initial_gs, initial_stack and early_gdt_descr properly for this case.

The improvement in boot time is the same as v7.

Thanks,
Usama

Changes across versions:
v2: Cut it back to just INIT/SIPI/SIPI in parallel for now, nothing more
v3: Clean up x2apic patch, add MTRR optimisation, lock topology update
in preparation for more parallelisation.
v4: Fixes to the real mode parallelisation patch spotted by SeanC, to
avoid scribbling on initial_gs in common_cpu_up(), and to allow all
24 bits of the physical X2APIC ID to be used. That patch still needs
a Signed-off-by from its original author, who once claimed not to
remember writing it at all. But now we've fixed it, hopefully he'll
admit it now :)
v5: rebase to v6.1 and remeasure performance, disable parallel bringup
for AMD CPUs.
v6: rebase to v6.2-rc6, disabled parallel boot on amd as a cpu bug and
reused timer calibration for secondary CPUs.
v7: [David Woodhouse] iterate over all possible CPUs to find any existing
cluster mask in alloc_clustermask. (patch 1/9)
Keep parallel AMD support enabled in AMD, using APIC ID in CPUID leaf
0x0B (for x2APIC mode) or CPUID leaf 0x01 where 8 bits are sufficient.
Included sanity checks for APIC id from 0x0B. (patch 6/9)
Removed patch for reusing timer calibration for secondary CPUs.
commit message and code improvements.
v8: Fix CPU0 hotplug by setting up the initial_gs, initial_stack and
early_gdt_descr.
Drop trampoline lock and bail if APIC ID not found in find_cpunr.
Code comments improved and debug prints added.

David Woodhouse (9):
x86/apic/x2apic: Allow CPU cluster_mask to be populated in parallel
cpu/hotplug: Move idle_thread_get() to <linux/smpboot.h>
cpu/hotplug: Add dynamic parallel bringup states before
CPUHP_BRINGUP_CPU
x86/smpboot: Reference count on smpboot_setup_warm_reset_vector()
x86/smpboot: Split up native_cpu_up into separate phases and document
them
x86/smpboot: Support parallel startup of secondary CPUs
x86/smpboot: Send INIT/SIPI/SIPI to secondary CPUs in parallel
x86/mtrr: Avoid repeated save of MTRRs on boot-time CPU bringup
x86/smpboot: Serialize topology updates for secondary bringup
