[PATCH] x86-64/i386: Intel HT, Multi core detection fixes
Fields obtained through cpuid vector 0x1(ebx[16:23]) and vector 0x4(eax[14:25], eax[26:31]) indicate the maximum values and might not always be the same as what is available and what OS sees. So make sure "siblings" and "cpu cores" values in /proc/cpuinfo reflect the values as seen by OS instead of what cpuid instruction says. This will also fix the buggy BIOS cases (for example where cpuid on a single core cpu says there are "2" siblings, even when HT is disabled in the BIOS. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4359) Signed-off-by: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
