Subject: x86/cpu/AMD: Make LFENCE a serializing instruction
X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=dd02d5819b11f85cf3e862e6b6c10a88eae0fa2a;p=pandora-kernel.git

x86/cpu/AMD: Make LFENCE a serializing instruction

commit e4d0e84e490790798691aaa0f2e598637f1867ec upstream.

To aid in speculation control, make LFENCE a serializing instruction
since it has less overhead than MFENCE.  This is done by setting bit 1
of MSR 0xc0011029 (DE_CFG).  Some families that support LFENCE do not
have this MSR.  For these families, the LFENCE instruction is already
serializing.
