[PATCH 2/3] x86: UV BAU runtime enable and disable

From: Cliff Wickman
Date: Fri Jun 22 2012 - 09:13:24 EST


This patch enables the BAU to be turned on or off dynamically.

echo "on" > /proc/sgi_uv/ptc_statistics
echo "off" > /proc/sgi_uv/ptc_statistics

The system may be booted with or without the nobau option.

Whether the system currently has the BAU off can be seen in
the /proc file -- normally with the baustats script.
Each cpu will have a 1 in the bauoff field if the BAU was turned off, so
baustats will give a count of cpus that have it off.
