[PATCH] x86/entry/32: Fix setup of CS high bits

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

 



From: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Even if we are not on an entry stack, we have to initialize the CS high
bits because we are unconditionally evaluating them
PARANOID_EXIT_TO_KERNEL_MODE. Failing to do so broke the boot on Galileo
Gen2 and IOT2000 boards.

Fixes: b92a165df17e ("x86/entry/32: Handle Entry from Kernel-Mode on Entry-Stack")
