Hi all,

Today's linux-next merge of the tip tree got a conflict in
arch/sparc/kernel/smp_32.c between commit d6d048192b1d ("sparc32:
implement SMP IPIs using the generic functions") from the sparc tree and
commit 184748cc50b2 ("sched: Provide scheduler_ipi() callback in response
to smp_send_reschedule()") from the tip tree.

I fixed it up (I am pretty sure that the sparc tree patch supercedes the
tip tree one) and can carry the fix as necessary.


Thanks for noticing this.

I looked at linux-next and I think the call to the scheduler_ipi is missing in the resched interrupt routine. I believe that the below patch should be applied ontop of linux-next. Could you include it in the merge or what do you suggest I do?

Thanks,
Daniel
