[PATCH 4.19 1/2] x86/tsx: Add a feature bit for TSX control MSR support

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

 



commit aaa65d17eec372c6a9756833f3964ba05b05ea14 upstream.

Support for the TSX control MSR is enumerated in MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES.
This is different from how other CPU features are enumerated i.e. via
CPUID. Currently, a call to tsx_ctrl_is_supported() is required for
enumerating the feature. In the absence of a feature bit for TSX control,
any code that relies on checking feature bits directly will not work.

In preparation for adding a feature bit check in MSR save/restore
during suspend/resume, set a new feature bit X86_FEATURE_TSX_CTRL when
MSR_IA32_TSX_CTRL is present.

  [ bp: Remove tsx_ctrl_is_supported()]

  [Pawan: Resolved conflicts in backport; Removed parts of commit message
          referring to removed function tsx_ctrl_is_supported()]
