[RFC 09/12] pc: Set fw_cfg data based on APIC ID calculation

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

 



This changes FW_CFG_MAX_CPUS and FW_CFG_NUMA to use apic_id_for_cpu(),
so the NUMA table can be based on the APIC IDs, instead of CPU index
(SeaBIOS knows nothing about CPU indexes, just APIC IDs).

Changes v2:
 - Get PC object as argument
 - Add more detailed comments explaining the reason for FW_CFG_MAX_CPUS
   not being simply 'max_cpus'

Changes v3:
 - Use PCInitArgs instead of PC object

Changes v4:
 - Don't use PCInitArgs, just add the necessary data for apic_id_limit()
   as argument
 - Rename function to pc_apic_id_limit()
 - Rename max_apic_id to apic_id_limit
