From: Ingo Molnar Date: Mon, 26 Jan 2009 03:30:41 +0000 (+0100) Subject: x86: unmask CPUID levels on Intel CPUs, fix X-Git-Tag: v2.6.29-rc3~42^2~2 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=99fb4d349db7e7dacb2099c5cc320a9e2d31c1ef;p=pandora-kernel.git x86: unmask CPUID levels on Intel CPUs, fix Impact: fix boot hang on pre-model-15 Intel CPUs rdmsrl_safe() does not work in very early bootup code yet, because we dont have the pagefault handler installed yet so exception section does not get parsed. rdmsr_safe() will just crash and hang the bootup. So limit the MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE MSR read to those CPU types that support it. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar --- Reading git-diff-tree failed
