[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] [XEN PATCH 5/9] x86/smp: call x2apic_ap_setup() earlier
It used to be called from smp_callin(), however BUG_ON() was invoked on
multiple occasions before that. It may end up calling machine_restart()
which tries to get APIC ID for CPU running this code. If BSP detected
that x2APIC is enabled, get_apic_id() will try to use it for all CPUs.
Enabling x2APIC on secondary CPUs earlier protects against an endless
loop of #GP exceptions caused by attempts to read IA32_X2APIC_APICID
MSR while x2APIC is disabled in IA32_APIC_BASE.
