Subject: [PATCH] x86: Fix Intel microcode revision detection
Date: Wed, 28 Dec 2016 04:39:31 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <2f771739-a617-0870-2f68-2a8ebba0bc46@ce.jp.nec.com> (raw)
early_init_intel() calls sync_core() before rdmsr(MSR_IA32_UCODE_REV),
assuming sync_core() is effectively CPUID(eax=1). However the assumption
no longer holds since commit c198b121b1a1 ("x86/asm: Rewrite sync_core()
to use IRET-to-self").
As a result, kernel fails to detect the revision of microcode, such as:
microcode: sig=0x206a7, pf=0x2, revision=0x0
Conversion from sync_core() to native_cpuid() has already been done in
Intel microcode driver by commit 484d0e5c7943 ("x86/microcode/intel:
Replace sync_core() with native_cpuid()"). This patch just extends the
conversion for early_init_intel().
Fixes: c198b121b1a1 ("x86/asm: Rewrite sync_core() to use IRET-to-self")
