Subject: [PATCH v1 1/3] x86/cpu/AMD: Make LFENCE a serializing instruction
Date: Fri, 05 Jan 2018 10:07:46 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180105160746.23786.11850.stgit@tlendack-t1.amdoffice.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180105160736.23786.45026.stgit@tlendack-t1.amdoffice.net>
To aid in speculation control, make LFENCE a serializing instruction.
This is done by setting bit 1 of MSR 0xc0011029 (DE_CFG). Some families
that support LFENCE do not have this MSR. For these families, the LFENCE
instruction is already serializing.
