[5/7, v9] NUMA Hotplug Emulator: Support cpu probe/release in x86_64

From: shaohui . zheng
Date: Fri Dec 10 2010 - 04:02:35 EST


From: Shaohui Zheng <shaohui.zheng@xxxxxxxxx>

CPU physical hot-add/hot-remove are supported on some hardwares, and it
was already supported in current linux kernel. NUMA Hotplug Emulator provides
a mechanism to emulate the process with software method. It can be used for
testing or debuging purpose.

CPU physical hotplug is different with logical CPU online/offline. Logical
online/offline is controled by interface /sys/device/cpu/cpuX/online. CPU
hotplug emulator uses probe/release interface. It becomes possible to do cpu
hotplug automation and stress

Add cpu interface probe/release under sysfs for x86_64. User can use this
interface to emulate the cpu hot-add and hot-remove process.

Directive:
*) Reserve CPU thru grub parameter like:
maxcpus=4

the rest CPUs will not be initiliazed.

*) Probe CPU
we can use the probe interface to hot-add new CPUs:
echo nid > /sys/devices/system/cpu/probe

*) Release a CPU
echo cpu > /sys/devices/system/cpu/release

A reserved CPU will be hot-added to the specified node.
1) nid == 0, the CPU will be added to the real node which the CPU
should be in
2) nid != 0, add the CPU to node nid even through it is a fake node.

This patch is based on Tejun's unification of the 32 and 64 bit NUMA boot paths,
specifically the patch at http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=129087151912379.
