Reserving a number of IPIs based upon the number of VPs reported by the GIC makes little sense for a few reasons: - The kernel may have been configured with NR_CPUS less than the number of VPs in the cluster, in which case using gic_vpes causes us to reserve more interrupts for IPIs than we will possibly use. - If a kernel is configured without support for multi-threading & runs on a system with multi-threading & multiple VPs per core then we'll similarly reserve more interrupts for IPIs than we will possibly use. - In systems with multiple clusters the GIC can only provide us with the number of VPs in its cluster, not across all clusters. In this case we'll reserve fewer interrupts for IPIs than we need. Fix these issues by using num_possible_cpus() instead, which in all cases is actually indicative of how many IPIs we may need.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
