[PATCH v7 14/21] x86/split_lock: Enable split lock detection by default

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

 



A split locked access locks bus and degrades overall memory access
performance. When split lock detection feature is enumerated, enable
the feature by default to find any split lock issue.
