X-Git-Tag: v3.4-rc5~11^2~1 X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b930fe5e1f5646e071facda70b25b137ebeae5af;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-3.10.git xen/acpi: Workaround broken BIOSes exporting non-existing C-states. We did a similar check for the P-states but did not do it for the C-states. What we want to do is ignore cases where the DSDT has definition for sixteen CPUs, but the machine only has eight CPUs and we get: xen-acpi-processor: (CX): Hypervisor error (-22) for ACPI CPU14 Reported-by: Tobias Geiger Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk --- diff --git a/drivers/xen/xen-acpi-processor.c b/drivers/xen/xen-acpi-processor.c index 174b565..0b48579 100644 --- a/drivers/xen/xen-acpi-processor.c +++ b/drivers/xen/xen-acpi-processor.c @@ -128,7 +128,10 @@ static int push_cxx_to_hypervisor(struct acpi_processor *_pr) pr_debug(" C%d: %s %d uS\n", cx->type, cx->desc, (u32)cx->latency); } - } else + } else if (ret != -EINVAL) + /* EINVAL means the ACPI ID is incorrect - meaning the ACPI + * table is referencing a non-existing CPU - which can happen + * with broken ACPI tables. */ pr_err(DRV_NAME "(CX): Hypervisor error (%d) for ACPI CPU%u\n", ret, _pr->acpi_id);
