Subject: [PATCH v2 4/8] x86, lib: Add WBNOINVD helper functions
Date: Fri, 16 May 2025 14:28:29 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250516212833.2544737-5-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250516212833.2544737-1-seanjc@google.com>
From: Kevin Loughlin <kevinloughlin@google.com>
In line with WBINVD usage, add WBONINVD helper functions. Fall back to
WBINVD (via alternative()) if WBNOINVD isn't supported, as WBINVD provides
a superset of functionality, just more slowly.
Note, alternative() ensures compatibility with early boot code as needed.
