[RFC PATCH v0 2/6] x86/cpufeatures: Add Upper Address Ignore(UAI) as CPU feature

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

 



Currently the maximum logical address size for AMD processors in
64 bit mode is 57 bits. This means that the remaining 7 upper bits
[63:57] are available for software use. With UAI feature turned ON,
the processor ignores these upper bits when performing canonical
check on these addresses.

Add UAI as a CPU feature.
