When DLPAR removing a CPU, the unmapping of the cpu from a node in unmap_cpu_from_node() should also invalidate the CPUs entry in the numa_cpu_lookup_table. There is not a guarantee that on a subsequent DLPAR add of the CPU the associativity will be the same and thus could be in a different node. Invalidating the entry in the numa_cpu_lookup_table causes the associativity to be read from the device tree at the time of the add. The current behavior of not invalidating the CPUs entry in the numa_cpu_lookup_table can result in scenarios where the the topology layout of CPUs in the partition does not match the device tree or the topology reported by the HMC. This bug looks like it was introduced in 2004 in the commit titled "ppc64: cpu hotplug notifier for numa", which is 6b15e4e87e32 in the linux-fullhist tree. Hence tag it for all stable releases.

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.
