From d70a54e2d08510a99b1f10eceeae6f2f7086e226 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Greg Kurz Date: Fri, 12 Dec 2014 12:37:40 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/powernv: Ignore smt-enabled on Power8 and later Starting with POWER8, the subcore logic relies on all threads of a core being booted so that they can participate in split mode switches. So on those machines we ignore the smt_enabled_at_boot setting (smt-enabled on the kernel command line).
