Subject: x86/microcode/intel: Establish staging control logic
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=740144bc6bde9d44e3a6c224cee6fe971a08fbca;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Flinux.git

x86/microcode/intel: Establish staging control logic

When microcode staging is initiated, operations are carried out through
an MMIO interface. Each package has a unique interface specified by the
IA32_MCU_STAGING_MBOX_ADDR MSR, which maps to a set of 32-bit registers.

Prepare staging with the following steps:

  1.  Ensure the microcode image is 32-bit aligned to match the MMIO
      register size.

  2.  Identify each MMIO interface based on its per-package scope.

  3.  Invoke the staging function for each identified interface, which
      will be implemented separately.

  [ bp: Improve error logging. ]
