[PATCH 2/2] xen/acpi: Execute _PDC on CPUs past the ones seen to the guest.

From: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk
Date: Tue May 01 2012 - 13:30:46 EST


acpi_early_processor_set_pdc does this (executes _PDC), but it
cannot do it for vCPUS that are past the currently available vCPUS
(so dom0_max_vcpus=X is used). We can easily find if that is
the case by seeing if we get the same failure as the generic code
and if so run _PDC ourselves. We also (by doing some other hypercalls)
know how many physical CPUs there are - which the acpi_get_cpuid
can't - as it bands the amount of CPUs up to 'cpu_possible()'
which has been influenced by 'dom0_max_vcpus=X' flag.
