Subject: [PATCH V4 0/2] Update microcode driver
Date: Tue, 11 Aug 2015 14:11:26 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1439320288-12279-1-git-send-email-aravind.gopalakrishnan@amd.com> (raw)
Patch 1: Cleans up integer types used for cpu numbers
per Jan's suggestion
Patch 2: Fix HW issue by skipping certain microcode levels
and aborting microcode update process as otherwise
system hangs are known to occur
Changes from V3 (per Jan)
- const-ify final_levels array
- cleanup int usage for cpu numbers in a pre-patch
Changes from V2 (per Boris)
- introduce family check as it's theoritically possible to have
same patch level for different family too.
- Indicate that the check is only on Fam10h too while at it
Changes from V1 (per Andrew)
- use commit text from linux patch
- include details about how 'final_levels' are obtaines in comments
(I have also copied it into commit message. But shall remove if you
feel it's redundant)
- use ARRAY_SIZE() and kill NULL terminator
- use XENLOG_INFO in place of pr_debug()
- correct unsigned int usage
