Hrmm, I'll have a poke at my AMD once I'm back home again, but does something like the below cure things for you? --- arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf_event_amd.c | 2 ++ 1 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) diff --git a/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf_event_amd.c b/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf_event_amd.c index 358a8e3..0189af4 100644 --- a/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf_event_amd.c +++ b/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf_event_amd.c @@ -345,6 +345,8 @@ static void amd_pmu_cpu_offline(int cpu) return; cpuhw = &per_cpu(cpu_hw_events, cpu); + if (!cpuhw) + return; raw_spin_lock(&amd_nb_lock); -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo(a)vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

That's what I was aiming for,. might have missed it by a mile though :/ > The appended patch fixes the breakage for me too. ok, works for me, thanks -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo(a)vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
