Otherwise you'll have to wait for the idle processor to wake up after its tick period before you'll actually see parallelism happen. This looks to me more like the resched-IPI is not properly plumbed and that's what needs to be fixed. Of course, people can use this workaround for now to also work on other parts of SMP questions. But we really do not want to put the idle question under the carpet. Samuel
