Hello,

I figured out that the problem is in the OF source code of the commit: Merge tag devicetree-for-4.20. [1]

That's a merge commit. Can you bisect the branch and identify the faulting commit ?

I reverted the following OF files and SMP works!

drivers/of/base.c
drivers/of/device.c
drivers/of/of_mdio.c
drivers/of/of_numa.c
drivers/of/of_private.h
drivers/of/overlay.c
drivers/of/platform.c
drivers/of/unittest-data/overlay_15.dts
drivers/of/unittest-data/tests-overlay.dtsi
drivers/of/unittest.c
include/linux/of.h

Cheers,
Christian

It solves the SMP problem! SMP works again on my P5020 board and on virtual e5500 QEMU machines.

QEMU command: ./qemu-system-ppc64 -M ppce500 -cpu e5500 -m 2048 -kernel /home/christian/Downloads/uImage-4.20-alpha5 -drive format=raw,file=/home/christian/Dokumente/ubuntu_MATE_16.04.3_LTS_PowerPC_QEMU/ubuntu_MATE_16.04_PowerPC.img,index=0,if=virtio -nic user,model=e1000 -append "rw root=/dev/vda3" -device virtio-vga -device virtio-mouse-pci -device virtio-keyboard-pci -soundhw es1370 -smp 4

Do we need a new dtb file or is it a bug?

Thanks,
Christian
