sclp early read cpu info is used to detect the number of configured cpus, which is utilized by smp_detect_cpus() in early startup. * For read cpu info, the sccb block should be below 2gb. * smp_detect_cpus() utilizes read cpu info early, but after memblock initialization. Thus use memblock_allow_low() instead. * Avoid copy of sclp_core_info structure. * sclp_early_init_core_info(), sclp_early_core_info and sclp_early_core_info_valid initdata are no longer required. * smp_get_core_info() is called only once during early stage. Hence for early sclp_get_core_info(), directly call read cpu command. No need to maintain sclp_early_core_info_valid.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
