Subject: [PATCH v5 6/6] x86/apic: Set up through-local-APIC on boot CPU if 'noapic' specified
Date: Wed, 14 Feb 2018 13:46:56 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180214054656.3780-7-bhe@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180214054656.3780-1-bhe@redhat.com>

Currently kdump kernel becomes very slow if 'noapic' is specified.
Normal kernel won't.

Kernel parameter 'noapic' is used to disable IO-APIC in system for
testing or special purpose. Here the root cause is that in kdump
kernel LAPIC is disabled since commit 522e664644
("x86/apic: Disable I/O APIC before shutdown of the local APIC").
In this case We need set up through-local-APIC on boot CPU in
setup_local_APIC().

While In normal kernel the legacy irq mode is enabled in BIOS. If
it is virtual wire mode, the local-APIC has been enabled and set as
through-local-APIC.

Though we fix the regression introduced by criminal commit 522e664644,
for safety and clarity, better set up through-local-APIC explicitly,
but not rely on the default boot irq mode.

Do it now.
