[PATCH 3/7] x86, lib: Add WBNOINVD helper functions

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

 



From: Kevin Loughlin <kevinloughlin@xxxxxxxxxx>

In line with WBINVD usage, add WBONINVD helper functions.  Fall back to
WBINVD (via alternative()) if WBNOINVD isn't supported, as WBINVD provides
a superset of functionality, just more slowly.

Note, alternative() ensures compatibility with early boot code as needed.
