Subject: [PATCH RESEND v4 2/3] x86/apic: Introduce a variable to track the number of EILVT registers
Date: Thu, 3 Sep 2026 14:58:40 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <99275fc7531b5c8708e2be8459251c9169b0ce63.1788425679.git.naveen@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1788425679.git.naveen@kernel.org>
Future AMD processors will be increasing the number of EILVT registers.
Rather than hardcoding the maximum EILVT register count and using that
everywhere, introduce a variable in 'struct apic' to track the EILVT
register count.
The number of EILVT registers is exposed through the extended APIC
Feature Register (APIC_EFEAT) bits 23:16. Use this to initialize the
count and fall back to the current default (APIC_EILVT_NR_AMD_10H) if
the count is not available.
