This happens because the kernel file arch/powerpc/platform/pseries/hotplug-cpu.c, function dlpar_cpu_remove(), is not finding the device_node.name of the offending CPU. We're not populating the 'name' property for hotplugged CPUs. Since the kernel relies on device_node.name for identifying CPU nodes, and the CPUs that are coldplugged has the 'name' property filled by SLOF, this is creating an unneeded inconsistency between hotplug and coldplug CPUs in the kernel. Let's fill the 'name' property for hotplugged CPUs as well. This will make the guest dmesg throws a less intimidating message when we try to unplug the last online CPU: pseries-hotplug-cpu: Failed to offline CPU PowerPC,POWER9@1, rc: -16 [1] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1911414 Signed-off-by: Daniel Henrique Barboza Message-Id: <20210120232305.241521-3-danielhb413@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David Gibson --- diff --git a/hw/ppc/spapr.c b/hw/ppc/spapr.c index e7992c0422..0ecc193468 100644 --- a/hw/ppc/spapr.c +++ b/hw/ppc/spapr.c @@ -3756,6 +3756,19 @@ int spapr_core_dt_populate(SpaprDrc *drc, SpaprMachineState *spapr, spapr_dt_cpu(cs, fdt, offset, spapr); + /* + * spapr_dt_cpu() does not fill the 'name' property in the + * CPU node.
