x86/smpboot: Do not use smp_num_siblings in __max_logical_packages calculation
Documentation/x86/topology.txt defines smp_num_siblings as "The number of threads in a core". Since commit bbb65d2d365e ("x86: use cpuid vector 0xb when available for detecting cpu topology") smp_num_siblings is the maximum number of threads in a core. If Simultaneous MultiThreading (SMT) is disabled on a system, smp_num_siblings is 2 and not 1 as expected. Use topology_max_smt_threads(), which contains the active numer of threads, in the __max_logical_packages calculation. On a single socket, single core, single thread system __max_smt_threads has not been updated when the __max_logical_packages calculation happens, so its zero which makes the package estimate fail. Initialize it to one, which is the minimum number of threads on a core. [ tglx: Folded the __max_smt_threads fix in ] Fixes: b4c0a7326f5d ("x86/smpboot: Fix __max_logical_packages estimate") Reported-by: Jakub Kicinski <kubakici@wp.pl> Signed-off-by: Prarit Bhargava <prarit@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Tested-by: Jakub Kicinski <kubakici@wp.pl> Cc: netdev@vger.kernel.org Cc: "netdev@vger.kernel.org" Cc: Clark Williams <williams@redhat.com> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20171204164521.17870-1-prarit@redhat.com
