Subject: [PATCH v1 0/5] x86/cpu: Refactor identify_cpu()
Date: Fri, 3 Jul 2026 17:20:41 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260704002046.3859585-1-ihor.solodrai@linux.dev> (raw)
This series refactors identify_cpu() machinery on x86 and then
implements a fix for a bug when cpu capabilities are temporarily
cleared within an interruptable window. For more details and
discussion see the relevant bug report [1].

Ihor Solodrai (5):
x86/cpu: Factor init_cpu_info() out of identify_cpu()
x86/cpu: Inline generic_identify() into identify_cpu()
x86/cpu: Introduce identify_cpu_32() helper
x86/cpu: Set X86_BUG_ESPFIX in identify_cpu_32()
x86/cpu: Don't reset boot CPU cpuinfo in identify_cpu()
