547f574fd9d5e3 Mathieu Chouquet-Stringer 2020-12-02 120 2) ``S`` if the kernel is running on a processor or system that is out of
547f574fd9d5e3 Mathieu Chouquet-Stringer 2020-12-02 121 specification: hardware has been put into an unsupported configuration,
547f574fd9d5e3 Mathieu Chouquet-Stringer 2020-12-02 122 therefore proper execution cannot be guaranteed.
547f574fd9d5e3 Mathieu Chouquet-Stringer 2020-12-02 123 Kernel will be tainted if, for example:
547f574fd9d5e3 Mathieu Chouquet-Stringer 2020-12-02 124
547f574fd9d5e3 Mathieu Chouquet-Stringer 2020-12-02 125 - on x86: PAE is forced through forcepae on intel CPUs (such as Pentium M)
547f574fd9d5e3 Mathieu Chouquet-Stringer 2020-12-02 126 which do not report PAE but may have a functional implementation, an SMP
547f574fd9d5e3 Mathieu Chouquet-Stringer 2020-12-02 127 kernel is running on non officially capable SMP Athlon CPUs, MSRs are
547f574fd9d5e3 Mathieu Chouquet-Stringer 2020-12-02 128 being poked at from userspace.
547f574fd9d5e3 Mathieu Chouquet-Stringer 2020-12-02 129 - on arm: kernel running on certain CPUs (such as Keystone 2) without
547f574fd9d5e3 Mathieu Chouquet-Stringer 2020-12-02 130 having certain kernel features enabled.
547f574fd9d5e3 Mathieu Chouquet-Stringer 2020-12-02 131 - on arm64: there are mismatched hardware features between CPUs, the
547f574fd9d5e3 Mathieu Chouquet-Stringer 2020-12-02 132 bootloader has booted CPUs in different modes.
547f574fd9d5e3 Mathieu Chouquet-Stringer 2020-12-02 133 - certain drivers are being used on non supported architectures (such as
547f574fd9d5e3 Mathieu Chouquet-Stringer 2020-12-02 134 scsi/snic on something else than x86_64, scsi/ips on non

35da8ad78e9b1a Ashok Raj 2022-08-13 137 - x86/x86_64: Microcode late loading is dangerous and will result in
35da8ad78e9b1a Ashok Raj 2022-08-13 138 tainting the kernel. It requires that all CPUs rendezvous to make sure
35da8ad78e9b1a Ashok Raj 2022-08-13 139 the update happens when the system is as quiescent as possible. However,
35da8ad78e9b1a Ashok Raj 2022-08-13 140 a higher priority MCE/SMI/NMI can move control flow away from that
35da8ad78e9b1a Ashok Raj 2022-08-13 141 rendezvous and interrupt the update, which can be detrimental to the
35da8ad78e9b1a Ashok Raj 2022-08-13 142 machine.
