Thank you very much for your advice. That solution is very good for me. I thought about the differences between them carefully. Firstly, I intend to separate out the functionality in two functions. It's simple but not good. Then, I try to put them together to judge just once. After, considering the judgment statement independence and the order of assignment. I remove all the "if (enabled)" code and do the unified judgment like this: @@ -2180,12 +2176,19 @@ int __generic_processor_info(int apicid, int version, bool enabled) apic->x86_32_early_logical_apicid(cpu); #endif set_cpu_possible(cpu, true); - if (enabled) + + if (enabled){ + num_processors++; + physid_set(apicid, phys_cpu_present_map); set_cpu_present(cpu, true); + }else{ + disabled_cpus++; + } return cpu; } I hope that patch could consistent with your advice. And I will submit the detailed modification in the next version patches. Thanks, Dou. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@kvack.org.
