[PATCH 3.16 54/99] x86/cpu: Update cached HLE state on write to TSX_CTRL_CPUID_CLEAR

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

 



3.16.84-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Pawan Gupta <pawan.kumar.gupta@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 5efc6fa9044c3356d6046c6e1da6d02572dbed6b upstream.

/proc/cpuinfo currently reports Hardware Lock Elision (HLE) feature to
be present on boot cpu even if it was disabled during the bootup. This
is because cpuinfo_x86->x86_capability HLE bit is not updated after TSX
state is changed via the new MSR IA32_TSX_CTRL.

Update the cached HLE bit also since it is expected to change after an
update to CPUID_CLEAR bit in MSR IA32_TSX_CTRL.

Fixes: 95c5824f75f3 ("x86/cpu: Add a "tsx=" cmdline option with TSX disabled by default")
