Okay, so based on the "Command data" documentation I'm suggesting in <cd0713b5-fd64-d3e1-7f83-3a0725b819a3@redhat.com">http://mid.mail-archive.com/cd0713b5-fd64-d3e1-7f83-3a0725b819a3@redhat.com>, I propose: 1. Store 0x0 to the 'CPU selector' register. 2. Store 0x0 to the 'Command field' register. 3. Read the 'CPU device status fields' register. 4. If both bit#1 and bit#2 are clear in the value read, there is no CPU with a pending event. 5. Otherwise, read the 'Command data' register. The value read is the selector of the CPU with the pending event (which is already selected). > + - Enumerate CPUs present/non present CPUs. > + 1. set iterator to 0x0 > + 2. write 0x0 into 'Command field' register and then iterator > + into 'CPU selector' register. > + 3. read 'enabled' flag for selected CPU from 'CPU device status fields' > + register > + 4. to continue to the next CPU, increment iterator and repeat step 2 > + 5. read 'Command data' register > + 5.1 if 'Command data' register matches iterator continue to step 3. > + (read presence bit for the next CPU) > + 5.2 if 'Command data' register has not changed, there is not CPU > + corresponding to iterator value and the last valid iterator value > + equals to 'max_cpus' + 1 > How about: 01. Set the present CPU count to 0. 02. Set the iterator to 0. 03. Store 0x0 to the 'Command field' register. 04. Store 0x0 to the 'CPU selector' register. 05. Read the 'CPU device status fields' register. 06. If bit#0 is set, increment the present CPU count. 07. Increment the iterator. 08. Store the iterator to the 'CPU selector' register. 09. Read the 'Command data' register. 10. If the value read is zero, then the iterator equals "max_cpus"; exit now. 11. Goto 05. Thanks Laszlo
