From f8fffa458368ed3d57385698f775880db629bd1a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yinghai Lu Date: Sun, 24 Feb 2008 21:36:28 -0800 Subject: x86: apic_is_clustered_box for vsmp quad core 8 socket system will have apic id lifting.the apic id range could be [4, 0x23]. and apic_is_clustered_box will think that need to three clusters and that is larger than 2. So it is treated as a clustered_box. and will get: Marking TSC unstable due to TSCs unsynchronized even if the CPUs have X86_FEATURE_CONSTANT_TSC set. this quick fix will check if the cpu is from AMD. but vsmp still needs that checking... this patch is fix to make sure that vsmp not to be passed.
