For architectures' using arch_topology, topology_sibling_cpumask() will at least
contain the tested CPU itself. This is initialized in
drivers/base/arch_topology.c:reset_cpu_topology(). So it won't be empty here.
Besides we don't need to check topology_is_primary_thread() at boot time:
-> cpu_up(cpu)
cpu_bootable()
if (cpu_smt_control == CPU_SMT_ENABLED &&
cpu_smt_thread_allowed(cpu)) // will always return true if
!CONFIG_SMT_NUM_THREADS_DYNAMIC
return true; // we'll always return here and @cpu is always bootable
Also tested fine in practice.
Thanks.
