Subject: [PATCH v5 02/12] x86/Kconfig: Add config switch for CPU0 hotplug
Date: Wed, 11 Jan 2012 09:04:43 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1326301493-28760-3-git-send-email-fenghua.yu@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1326301493-28760-1-git-send-email-fenghua.yu@intel.com>

From: Fenghua Yu <fenghua.yu@intel.com>

New config switch CONFIG_BOOTPARAM_HOTPLUG_CPU0 sets default state of whether
the CPU0 hotplug is on or off.

If the switch is off, CPU0 is not hotpluggable by default. But the CPU0 hotplug
feature can still be turned on by kernel parameter cpu0_hotplug at boot.

If the switch is on, CPU0 is always hotpluggable. The default value of
the switch is off.

+	  First, resume from hibernate or suspend always starts from CPU0.
