x86/acpi: Enable MADT APIs to return disabled apicids
The whole patch-set aims at making cpuid <-> nodeid mapping persistent. So that, when node online/offline happens, cache based on cpuid <-> nodeid mapping such as wq_numa_possible_cpumask will not cause any problem. It contains 4 steps: 1. Enable apic registeration flow to handle both enabled and disabled cpus. 2. Introduce a new array storing all possible cpuid <-> apicid mapping. 3. Enable _MAT and MADT relative apis to return non-present or disabled cpus' apicid. 4. Establish all possible cpuid <-> nodeid mapping. This patch finishes step 3. There are four mappings in the kernel: 1. nodeid (logical node id) <-> pxm (persistent) 2. apicid (physical cpu id) <-> nodeid (persistent) 3. cpuid (logical cpu id) <-> apicid (not persistent, now persistent by step 2) 4. cpuid (logical cpu id) <-> nodeid (not persistent) So, in order to setup persistent cpuid <-> nodeid mapping for all possible CPUs, we should: 1. Setup cpuid <-> apicid mapping for all possible CPUs, which has been done in step 1, 2. 2. Setup cpuid <-> nodeid mapping for all possible CPUs. But before that, we should obtain all apicids from MADT. All processors' apicids can be obtained by _MAT method or from MADT in ACPI. The current code ignores disabled processors and returns -ENODEV. After this patch, a new parameter will be added to MADT APIs so that caller is able to control if disabled processors are ignored.
