Did the NASM CI patch make it in? I never saw another response after v3.

I agree that the first two patch sets are bugfixes, but I'm not entirely
convinced the third one is a bugfix as well -- it is a performance
optimization, to my understanding. Without that patch set, there is no
misbehavior, things are just slower.

The bugfixes can be merged of course; I wouldn't merge the 3rd series
however.

... I can see Ray pushed the first patch of the third series:
<https://nam06.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fedk2.groups.io%2Fg%2Fdevel%2Fmessage%2F72249&amp;data=04%7C01%7Cbret.barkelew%40microsoft.com%7Ce5040db931b846722c3e08d8dcc6bb7d%7C72f988bf86f141af91ab2d7cd011db47%7C1%7C0%7C637502093407405739%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&amp;sdata=x6%2B7EikSUlD%2BCCnnf10g3Knv9sibI3X62PxtP9snnO4%3D&amp;reserved=0>

I disagree with that. Here's an excerpt from the commit message:

  With this patch, OVMF when running in a 255 threads QEMU spends about
  one second to wakeup all APs. Original implementation needs more than
  10 seconds.

I wouldn't call the pre-patch behavior a bug.

And the review for "[PATCH v3 1/4] UefiCpuPkg/MpInitLib: Use XADD to
avoid lock acquire/release" only arrived (from Mike) after the SFF, so I
don't think it should have been pushed.

On the other hand, I also won't ask for a revert.

Thanks
Laszlo
