Subject: [PATCH] arm64: efi: Force the use of SetVirtualAddressMap() on Altra Max machines
Date: Wed, 8 Feb 2023 15:12:00 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <a968c446bde75bf019580366854349bf94e6c961.1675897882.git.darren@os.amperecomputing.com> (raw)
Commit 550b33cfd445 ("arm64: efi: Force the use of SetVirtualAddressMap()
on Altra machines") identifies the Altra family via the family field in
the type#1 SMBIOS record. Altra Max machines are similarly affected but
not detected with the strict strcmp test.
Rather than risk greedy matching with strncmp, add a second test for
Altra Max. Do not refactor to handle multiple tests as these should be
the only two needed.
Fixes: 550b33cfd445 ("arm64: efi: Force the use of SetVirtualAddressMap() on Altra machines")
