[PATCH v2 0/2] x86, apic, kdump: Disable BSP if boot cpu is AP

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch set is to allow kdump 2nd kernel to wake up multiple CPUs
even if 1st kernel crashs on some AP.

This version is for fixing building failure of tip tree reported by
some bot and also adding the other fixes I missed out from previous
experimental version I posted last year; see ChangeLog.

Sorry, this patch set have not include in-source documentation
requested by Borislav Petkov yet, but I'll post it later separately,
which would be better to focus on documentation reviewing.

ChangeLog

v1 => v2)

- Rebased on top of v3.12-rc5.

- Fix linking time error of boot_cpu_is_bsp_init() in case of
  CONFIG_LOCAL_APIC disabled by adding empty static inline function
  instead.

- Fix missing feature check by means of cpu_has_apic macro in
  boot_cpu_is_bsp_init() before calling rdmsr_safe(MSR_IA32_APICBASE).

  NOTE: I've checked local apic-present case only; I don't have any
  x86 processor without local apic.

- Add __init annotation to boot_cpu_is_bsp_init().

Test

- built with and without CONFIG_LOCAL_APIC
- tested x86_64 in case of acpi and MP table
