The current PowerPC systems already perform remove_processor / add_processor operations during migration events that subsume the necessary affinity changes. This patchset was overkill, so we pulled it. Memory affinity on the other hand does need intervention, and that patchset has been posted. I was just about to ping Michael Ellerman about the status from his end. > > Thanks > > Michal Thanks. Michael -- Michael W.
