We've already scanned features by the time init_e820() is called. Remove the cpuid() calls.
Signed-off-by: Andrew Cooper <andrew.coop...@citrix.com> --- CC: Jan Beulich <jbeul...@suse.com> CC: Roger Pau Monné <roger....@citrix.com> Backporting. Not sure it's worth backporing, but it is safe (just) to backport past commit 365f408339d3 ("x86/boot: Load microcode much earlier on boot"). That commit was the last one to reposition early_cpu_init(). I'm pretty sure that all 64bit CPUs have MTRR, but I'm less certain if dropping the check is wise given the variety of VM configurations that exist. --- xen/arch/x86/e820.c | 14 ++------------ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-) diff --git a/xen/arch/x86/e820.c b/xen/arch/x86/e820.c index e052e84de75c..ca577c0bde0f 100644 --- a/xen/arch/x86/e820.c +++ b/xen/arch/x86/e820.c @@ -421,21 +421,12 @@ static void __init clip_to_limit(uint64_t limit, const char *warnmsg) /* Conservative estimate of top-of-RAM by looking for MTRR WB regions. */ static uint64_t __init mtrr_top_of_ram(void) { - uint32_t eax, ebx, ecx, edx; uint64_t mtrr_cap, mtrr_def, addr_mask, base, mask, top; unsigned int i; /* By default we check only Intel systems. */ if ( e820_mtrr_clip == -1 ) - { - char vendor[13]; - cpuid(0x00000000, &eax, - (uint32_t *)&vendor[0], - (uint32_t *)&vendor[8], - (uint32_t *)&vendor[4]); - vendor[12] = '\0'; - e820_mtrr_clip = !strcmp(vendor, "GenuineIntel"); - } + e820_mtrr_clip = boot_cpu_data.x86_vendor == X86_VENDOR_INTEL; if ( !e820_mtrr_clip ) return 0; @@ -444,8 +435,7 @@ static uint64_t __init mtrr_top_of_ram(void) printk("Checking MTRR ranges...\n"); /* Does the CPU support architectural MTRRs? */ - cpuid(0x00000001, &eax, &ebx, &ecx, &edx); - if ( !test_bit(X86_FEATURE_MTRR & 31, &edx) ) + if ( !cpu_has_mtrr ) return 0; /* paddr_bits must have been set at this point */ -- 2.39.5
