So since we are trying to explain things, wouldn't this comment be more informative if it explained why we are trying to use the x2APIC facilities of Hyper-V? I.e. what are the benefits of using the x2apic API towards the hypervisor? > + */ > +#define HV_X64_X2APIC_MSRS_RECOMMENDED (1 << 8) > + > /* MSR used to identify the guest OS. */ > #define HV_X64_MSR_GUEST_OS_ID 0x40000000 > > diff --git a/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mshyperv.c b/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mshyperv.c > index 939155f..dd2eb49 100644 > --- a/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mshyperv.c > +++ b/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mshyperv.c > @@ -110,6 +110,55 @@ static struct clocksource hyperv_cs = { > .flags = CLOCK_SOURCE_IS_CONTINUOUS, > }; > > +static u64 ms_hv_apic_icr_read(void) > +{ > + u64 reg_val; > + > + rdmsrl(HV_X64_MSR_ICR, reg_val); > + return reg_val; > +} > + > +static void ms_hv_apic_icr_write(u32 low, u32 id) > +{ > + u64 reg_val; > + > + reg_val = SET_APIC_DEST_FIELD(id); > + reg_val = (reg_val << 32); Those parentheses are not needed. > + reg_val |= low; > + > + wrmsrl(HV_X64_MSR_EOI, reg_val); > +} > + > +static u32 ms_hv_apic_read(u32 reg) > +{ > + u64 reg_val; > + > + switch (reg) { > + case APIC_EOI: > + case APIC_TASKPRI: > + rdmsrl(HV_X64_MSR_EOI, reg_val); > + return reg_val; So wouldn't it be faster to use u32 for 'reg_val' and rdmsr() instead of u64 and rdmsrl()?
