2 microcode loader patches for 3.2-stable

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

 



Hi Ben,

please queue those two for 3.2-stable, otherwise some AMD laptops freeze
during microcode updating.

Thanks.

Subject: [PATCH] x86/microcode/amd: Extract current patch level read to a
 function

Commit 2eff73c0a11f19ff082a566e3429fbaaca7b8e7b upstream.

Pave the way for checking the current patch level of the
microcode in a core. We want to be able to do stuff depending on
the patch level - in this case decide whether to update or not.
But that will be added in a later patch.

Drop unused local var uci assignment, while at it.

Integrate a fix for 32-bit and CONFIG_PARAVIRT from Takashi Iwai:

 Use native_rdmsr() in check_current_patch_level() because with
 CONFIG_PARAVIRT enabled and on 32-bit, where we run before
 paging has been enabled, we cannot deref pv_info yet. Or we
 could, but we'd need to access its physical address. This way of
 fixing it is simpler. See:

   https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=943179 for the background.

Subject: [PATCH] x86/microcode/amd: Do not overwrite final patch levels
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Commit 0399f73299f1b7e04de329050f7111b362b7eeb5 upstream.

A certain number of patch levels of applied microcode should not
be overwritten by the microcode loader, otherwise bad things
will happen.

Check those and abort update if the current core has one of
those final patch levels applied by the BIOS. 32-bit needs
special handling, of course.

See https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=913996 for more
info.
