| H A D | smp.h | diff 3d4422332711ef48ef0f132f1fcbfcbd56c7f3d1 Thu Jun 26 11:21:34 CEST 2008 Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com> Add generic helpers for arch IPI function calls
This adds kernel/smp.c which contains helpers for IPI function calls. In
addition to supporting the existing smp_call_function() in a more efficient
manner, it also adds a more scalable variant called smp_call_function_single()
for calling a given function on a single CPU only.
The core of this is based on the x86-64 patch from Nick Piggin, lots of
changes since then. "Alan D. Brunelle" <Alan.Brunelle@hp.com> has
contributed lots of fixes and suggestions as well. Also thanks to
Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> for reviewing RCU usage
and getting rid of the data allocation fallback deadlock.

Impact: build/boot fix for x86/Voyager

| Add generic helpers for arch IPI function calls
didn't wire up the voyager smp call function correctly, so do that
here. Also make CONFIG_USE_GENERIC_SMP_HELPERS a def_bool y again,
since we now use the generic helpers for every x86 architecture.
