Re: [XenPPC] [PATCH/RFC] Run C code that inits HID registers from second
Question to all:
The "cpuid" from firmware (OF "reg" property) is significant only
to uniquely identify the interrupt line that FW assigned to it
(usually for IPIs).
Not firmware in most cases; it's "hardcoded" in the hardware.
It is not necessarily the processors PIR register value, nor does
it have any other meaning.
You can set the PIR to whatever you want, it's R/W.
Should we use it as our global index or use our own numbering system
You want to remap those numbers; they can be sparse (like, on a 970GX
system, the CPUs are 0 and 2 typically).
