[PATCH RFC v3 0/3] support hotplug CPUs before reboot

From: Hsin-Yi Wang
Date: Mon Jan 13 2020 - 07:02:20 EST


This series adds a config REBOOT_HOTPLUG_CPU which would hotplug CPUs
before reboot. Architecture code (smp_send_stop) currently would loop
through online secondary CPUs and some may call ipi functions to them.
With this config enabled, ideally we don't need smp_send_stop. But we
keep the code for those don't enable this config and as a backup if
some CPU fails to go offline before reboot.

Also enable this config for arm64 and x86 defconfig as an example.

Change from v2:
* Add another config instead of configed by CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU

Hsin-Yi Wang (3):
reboot: support hotplug CPUs before reboot
arm64: defconfig: enable REBOOT_HOTPLUG_CPU
x86: defconfig: enable REBOOT_HOTPLUG_CPU
