[PATCH] x86/cpu/topology: remove limit of CPUs due to noapic on x86_64
Posted by Fernando Fernandez Mancera 2 months, 3 weeks ago
On x86_64 the command line parameter "noapic" should not limit the
number of possible CPUs, as it only limits the use of IRQ sharing or
device IRQ remapping. Only on x86_32 the command line parameter
"nolapic" limits the number of possible CPUs to one. This restores the
behavior previous to the rework of possible CPU management.
