[PATCH] x86/cpuid: Deal with broken firmware once more

From: Thomas Gleixner
Date: Wed Nov 09 2016 - 10:38:32 EST


Both ACPI and MP specifications require that the APIC id in the respective
tables must be the same as the APIC id in CPUID.

The kernel retrieves the physical package id from the APIC id during the
ACPI/MP table scan and builds the physical to logical package map.

There exist Virtualbox and Xen implementations which violate the spec. As a
result the physical to logical package map, which relies on the ACPI/MP
tables does not work on those systems, because the CPUID initialized
physical package id does not match the firmware id. This causes system
crashes and malfunction due to invalid package mappings.

The only way to cure this is to sanitize the physical package id after the
CPUID enumeration and yell when the APIC ids are different. If the physical
package IDs differ use the package information from the ACPI/MP tables so
the existing logical package map just works.
