From 33ad5e4b6cab3ad8cf3afda49b66393f1833150e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Anton Blanchard Date: Thu, 17 Jun 2010 14:33:06 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: Linux cannot run with 0 cores If we configure with CONFIG_SMP=n or set NR_CPUS less than the number of SMT threads we will set the max cores property to 0 in the ibm,client-architecture-support structure. On new versions of firmware that understand this property it obliges and terminates our partition. Use DIV_ROUND_UP so we handle not only the CONFIG_SMP=n case but also the case where NR_CPUS isn't a multiple of the number of SMT threads. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard Acked-by: Paul E.
