I have 4 emails from you on that day (and one private), they pertain to getting stuck in perf_{install,remove}_from_context(). None of those emails seem to contain an answer to either of the two above questions. cact4y+za4l4q6fzlxjygbnsyrwa7rjzycg_s562q+crny9c...@mail.gmail.com cact4y+yukygcuqfw6ebttdfrqdf7eetrb3vayjk+luxe_-i...@mail.gmail.com CACT4Y+bvHWuyDZjoFhLAOiK1rfNQcfuSJCY0oS5xA=u8j04...@mail.gmail.com cact4y+an67kntsvvzyvvrykw9yg7pbduc8wyb38piwrost0...@mail.gmail.com and in private: cact4y+zb1vu192jbcnys9qy3cpsvfaujdpbvusmosuectqj...@mail.gmail.com Did I miss an email?

You can do hotplug like: echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online so if syzkaller doesn't know about that, and I suppose you not knowing this means syzkaller doesn't either, this isn't happening. Thanks, that disqualifies a bunch of code. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
