No functional change in this patch.The new name does not match how you describe "primary domain index" in the documentation from patch 6/6. There it comes from the values in associativity-reference-points, but here it simply comes from the lengths of all the associativity properties.No, sorry, I misread this code... misled by the old name, so it's a good thing you're changing it. But.. I'm still not sure the new name is accurate, either... [snip]quoted

if (form1_affinity) { - depth = of_read_number(distance_ref_points, 1); + index = of_read_number(distance_ref_points, 1);AFACIT distance_ref_points hasn't been altered from the of_get_property() at this point, so isn't this setting depth / index to the number of entries in ref-points, rather than the value of the first entry (which is what primary domain index is supposed to be).ibm,associativity-reference-points property format is as below. # lsprop ibm,associativity-reference-points ibm,associativity-reference-points 00000004 00000002 it doesn't have the number of elements as the first item. For FORM1 1 element is the NUMA boundary index/primary_domain_index For FORM0 2 element is the NUMA boundary index/primary_domain_index.
Sorry, my bad. I foolishly expected consistency from PAPR. -- David Gibson | I'll have my music baroque, and my code david AT gibson.dropbear.id.au | minimalist, thank you. NOT _the_ _other_ | _way_ _around_! http://www.ozlabs.org/~dgibson
