+Subject: [PATCH] small fixes to 3.3 (and 3.2) CPU hotplug code. (v1)
+Date: Wed, 1 Feb 2012 16:16:38 -0500
+
+While I was playing with 'xm vcpu-set X N' I realized that the VCPU hotplug
+code in 3.2 spews tons of messages. Found out that we were missing an preempt_*
+call. While at it, I fixed also an annoying message ("XENBUS: Unable to ..")
+that shows up during bootup.
+
+Anyhow, these are going for 3.3 and CC-ing stable on the:

+Subject: [PATCH 1/2] xen/smp: Fix CPU online/offline bug triggering a BUG: scheduling while atomic.
+Date: Wed, 1 Feb 2012 16:16:39 -0500
+
+When a user offlines a VCPU and then onlines it, we get:
+
+NMI watchdog disabled (cpu2): hardware events not enabled
+BUG: scheduling while atomic: swapper/2/0/0x00000002

+ [<ffffffff81070571>] __schedule_bug+0x61/0x70

+ [<ffffffff810349be>] cpu_idle+0xbe/0xe0
+ [<ffffffff81583599>] cpu_bringup_and_idle+0xe/0x10
+
+The reason for this should be obvious from this call-chain:
+cpu_bringup_and_idle:
+ \- cpu_bringup
+ | \-[preempt_disable]
+ |
+ |- cpu_idle
+ \- play_dead [assuming the user offlined the VCPU]
+ | \
+ | +- (xen_play_dead)
+ | \- HYPERVISOR_VCPU_off [so VCPU is dead, once user
+ | | onlines it starts from here]
+ | \- cpu_bringup [preempt_disable]
+ |
+ +- preempt_enable_no_reschedule()
+ +- schedule()
+ \- preempt_enable()
+
+So we have two preempt_disble() and one preempt_enable(). Calling
+preempt_enable() after the cpu_bringup() in the xen_play_dead
+fixes the imbalance.

+Subject: [PATCH 2/2] xen/bootup: During bootup suppress XENBUS: Unable to read cpu state
+Date: Wed, 1 Feb 2012 16:16:40 -0500
+
+When the initial domain starts, it prints (depending on the
+amount of CPUs) a slew of
+XENBUS: Unable to read cpu state
+XENBUS: Unable to read cpu state
+XENBUS: Unable to read cpu state
+XENBUS: Unable to read cpu state
+
+which provide no useful information - as the error is a valid
+issue - but not on the initial domain. The reason is that the
+XenStore is not accessible at that time (it is after all the
+first guest) so the CPU hotplug watch cannot parse "availability/cpu"
+attribute.
