Subject: [PATCH]: NMI: add Intel processor 0x6f4 to NMI perfctr1 workaround
Date: Thu, 28 May 2009 18:17:41 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090528221738.13158.58193.sendpatchset@prarit.bos.redhat.com> (raw)
Expand Intel NMI perfctr1 workaround to include a Core2 processor stepping
(cpuid family-6, model-f, stepping-4). Resolves a situation where the NMI
would not enable on these processors.
