Also, It doesn't _really_ help to have the changelog tell us the function name. That's why we have diff -p. How about: APIC detection is currently limited to a few specific families and will not match the upcoming families >=18. Extend the check to include all families 6 or greater. Also convert it to a VFM check to make it simpler. > arch/x86/kernel/apic/apic.c | 4 ++-- > 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/arch/x86/kernel/apic/apic.c b/arch/x86/kernel/apic/apic.c > index c5fb28e6451a..13dac8f78213 100644 > --- a/arch/x86/kernel/apic/apic.c > +++ b/arch/x86/kernel/apic/apic.c > @@ -2014,8 +2014,8 @@ static bool __init detect_init_APIC(void) > case X86_VENDOR_HYGON: > break; > case X86_VENDOR_INTEL: > - if (boot_cpu_data.x86 == 6 || boot_cpu_data.x86 == 15 || > - (boot_cpu_data.x86 == 5 && boot_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_APIC))) > + if ((boot_cpu_data.x86 == 5 && boot_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_APIC)) || > + boot_cpu_data.x86_vfm >= INTEL_PENTIUM_PRO) > break; > goto no_apic; > default: With that changelog tweak: Acked-by: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
