Subject: [PATCH] x86_64: make amd quad core 8 socket system not be clustered_box v2
Date: Sat, 23 Feb 2008 21:48:42 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200802232148.43255.yinghai.lu@sun.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <47BF1BD9.4020808@firstfloor.org>


quad core 8 socket system will have apic id lifting.the apic id range could
be [4, 0x23]. and apic_is_clustered_box will think that need to three clusters
and that is large than 2. So it is treated as clustered_box.

and will get

Marking TSC unstable due to TSCs unsynchronized

even the CPUs have X86_FEATURE_CONSTANT_TSC set.

this patch will check if the cpu is from AMD.
