[PATCH] x86/proc: fix /proc/cpuinfo cpu offline bug

From: Lai Jiangshan
Date: Fri Oct 17 2008 - 04:57:48 EST



In my test, I found that if a cpu has been offline,
the next cpus may not be shown in the /proc/cpuinfo.

trivially reproduce this bug:

1) add these lines in the end of show_cpuinfo()
if (m->size - m->count - 20 > 0)
seq_printf(m, "%*s", (int)(m->size - m->count - 20), "show bug\n");

2) rebuilt kernel & reboot
3) offline cpu#1
4) cat /proc/cpuinfo
cpu#2 and cpu#3 .... cannot be shown in /proc/cpuinfo
