<id>f32393c943e297b8ae180c8f83d81a156c7d0412</id>
<content type='text'>
The incorrect ordering of operations during cpu dlpar add results in invalid
affinity for the cpu being added. The ibm,associativity property in the
device tree is populated with all zeroes for the added cpu which results in
invalid affinity mappings and all cpus appear to belong to node 0.

This occurs because rtas configure-connector is called prior to making the
rtas set-indicator calls. Phyp does not assign affinity information
for a cpu until the rtas set-indicator calls are made to set the isolation
and allocation state.

Correct the order of operations to make the rtas set-indicator
calls (done in dlpar_acquire_drc) before calling rtas configure-connector.

Fixes: 1a8061c46c46 ("powerpc/pseries: Add kernel based CPU DLPAR handling")

Previously, find_and_init_phbs() was used in both PowerNV and pSeries
setup. However, since RTAS support has been dropped from PowerNV, we
can move it into a platform-specific file.

<title>powerpc: Drop return value of smp_ops-&gt;probe()</title>

smp_ops-&gt;probe() is currently supposed to return the number of cpus in
the system.

The last actual usage of the value was removed in May 2007 in e147ec8f1808
"[POWERPC] Simplify smp_space_timers". We still passed the value around
until June 2010 when even that was finally removed in c1aa687d499a
"powerpc: Clean up obsolete code relating to decrementer and timebase".

So drop that requirement, probe() now returns void, and update all
implementations.

smp_ops-&gt;probe() is currently supposed to return the number of cpus in
the system.

The last actual usage of the value was removed in May 2007 in e147ec8f1808
"[POWERPC] Simplify smp_space_timers". We still passed the value around
until June 2010 when even that was finally removed in c1aa687d499a
"powerpc: Clean up obsolete code relating to decrementer and timebase".

So drop that requirement, probe() now returns void, and update all
implementations.
