[kvm-unit-tests PATCH v2] x86: Set "APIC Software Enable" after APIC reset

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

 



After the APIC is reset, some of its registers might be reset. As the
SDM says: "When IA32_APIC_BASE[11] is set to 0, prior initialization to
the APIC may be lost and the APIC may return to the state described in
Section 10.4.7.1". The SDM also says that after APIC reset "the
spurious-interrupt vector register is initialized to 000000FFH". This
means that after the APIC is reset it needs to be software-enabled
through the SPIV.

This is done one occasion, but there are other occasions that do not
software-enable the APIC after reset (e.g., __test_apic_id() and main()
in vmx.c). Reenable software-enable APIC in these cases.
