I don't think I actually understand what it does: it appears to register a notifier on the first cpu of each node; maybe that should be reflected in the name. > +static int __init nest_pmu_init(void) > +{ > + int ret = 0; > + > + /* > + * Lets do this only if we are hypervisor > + */ > + if (!cur_cpu_spec->oprofile_cpu_type || > + strcmp(cur_cpu_spec->oprofile_cpu_type, "ppc64/power8") || > + !cpu_has_feature(CPU_FTR_HVMODE)) > + return ret; > + > + cpumask_chip(); > + > + return 0; > +} - Where is ret set? I can only see it set when it's defined: the if statment doesn't change the value of ret as far as I can see... - Would it be clearer if you said !(strcmp(cur_cpu_spec->oprofile_cpu_type, "ppc64/power8") == 0) That would make it clearer that you're trying to get a list of possible failure conditions. - Is there really no better way to check if a CPU is a power 8 than an string comparison? > +device_initcall(nest_pmu_init); Regards, Daniel Axtens
