I was rediffing the task_cpu patch, when reached a new hunk in -aa:
kernel/sched.c::sched_init(void):
+ current->cpu = smp_processor_id();
As include/asm-i386/smp.h says,
#define smp_processor_id() (current->cpu)
So you have a harmless and useless assignment...
unless you really wanted to do any other thing, or
smp_processor_id() != current->cpu in some arch.
???
TIA

yes, it's a superflous line, it's the equivalent of the 2.5.40 line
here:
rq->idle = current;
set_task_cpu(current, smp_processor_id());
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
wake_up_process(current);
it is a superflous bit in the o1 scheduler changes. If the boot cpu
isn't id 0 it must be initialized by the architectural code in arch/.
Either that or sched_init must use hard_smp_processor_id(). On most
archs the boot cpu is id 0 so it probably doesn't trigger if needed.

Ew we do that in 2.5, too.
I think this is a mistake; we don't need to do this here. But if I am
wrong, we need to get the current processor number elsewhere.
