Can you please stick that document into the kernel bugzilla, as it's going to be on a different place before this gets merged into Linus tree? See: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1478631281-5061-1-git-send-email-kan.li...@intel.com > + static const struct msr_bit msr_bits[] = { > + { X86_FEATURE_CPUID_FAULT, MSR_PLATFORM_INFO, 31 }, Can you please make that PLATINFO_CPUID_FAULT_BIT instead of 31? Thanks, tglx
