[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] [PATCH for-4.15] x86/boot: Drop 'noapic' suggestion from check_timer()
In practice, there is no such thing as a real 64bit system without
APICs. (PVH style virtual environments, sure, but they don't end up here).
The suggestion to try and use noapic only makes a bad situation worse.

I wanted to have enough time to drop all of the pre-APIC infrastructure, but
that is a massive can of decades-old-worms. For 4.15, suffice just to to
prevent misleading users more than necessary.
