Subject: [PATCH 0/4] powerpc: Misc early boot fixes
Date: Fri, 16 Dec 2022 21:59:26 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221216115930.2667772-1-npiggin@gmail.com> (raw)

The first patch is a fix for a commit that's in powerpc next which
is a pretty harmless dump_stack(). Except that we had some bugs with
doing stack unwinding that early when the boot CPU is not zero so
that ended up crashing badly.

First patch should be relatively safe and solve that problem, but
only needed if you're testing with stress_hpt. Second patch is a
relatively minimal fix that should close most of the large window
where we're running with the wrong task_cpu, but I would not call
it trivial because it could cause some weird breakage or expose
another bug. Third patch closes the rest of the window and makes
the paca allocation a lot better, but it has more possibility for
regressions. Last patch is independent of the rest and should be
quite straightforward.

Thanks,
Nick
