From c5e83e3f42938c0a84047e125edb98d6513f985b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jack Steiner Date: Mon, 12 Mar 2007 08:07:49 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] [IA64] Fix get_model_name() for mixed cpu type systems If a system consists of mixed processor types, kmalloc() can be called before the per-cpu data page is initialized. If the slab contains sufficient memory, then kmalloc() works ok. However, if the slabs are empty, slab calls the memory allocator. This requires per-cpu data (NODE_DATA()) & the cpu dies. Also noted by Russ Anderson who had a very similar patch.
