x86: Limit the number of processor bootup messages
When there are a large number of processors in a system, there is an excessive amount of messages sent to the system console. It's estimated that with 4096 processors in a system, and the console baudrate set to 56K, the startup messages will take about 84 minutes to clear the serial port. This set of patches limits the number of repetitious messages which contain no additional information. Much of this information is obtainable from the /proc and /sysfs. Some of the messages are also sent to the kernel log buffer as KERN_DEBUG messages so dmesg can be used to examine more closely any details specific to a problem. The new cpu bootup sequence for system_state == SYSTEM_BOOTING: Booting Node 0, Processors #1 #2 #3 #4 #5 #6 #7 Ok. Booting Node 1, Processors #8 #9 #10 #11 #12 #13 #14 #15 Ok. ... Booting Node 3, Processors #56 #57 #58 #59 #60 #61 #62 #63 Ok. Brought up 64 CPUs After the system is running, a single line boot message is displayed when CPU's are hotplugged on: Booting Node %d Processor %d APIC 0x%x Status of the following lines: CPU: Physical Processor ID: printed once (for boot cpu) CPU: Processor Core ID: printed once (for boot cpu) CPU: Hyper-Threading is disabled printed once (for boot cpu) CPU: Thermal monitoring enabled printed once (for boot cpu) CPU %d/0x%x -> Node %d: removed CPU %d is now offline: only if system_state == RUNNING Initializing CPU#%d: KERN_DEBUG Signed-off-by: Mike Travis <travis@sgi.com> LKML-Reference: <4B219E28.8080601@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: H.
