From d16aafff2570abb557a5cb18c98027aabd602e22 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Siddha, Suresh B" Date: Sun, 30 Oct 2005 14:59:30 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] intel_cacheinfo: remove MAX_CACHE_LEAVES limit Initial internal version of Venki's cpuid(4) deterministic cache parameter identification patch used static arrays of size MAX_CACHE_LEAVES. Final patch which made to the base used dynamic array allocation, with this MAX_CACHE_LEAVES limit hunk still in place. cpuid(4) already has a mechanism to find out the number of cache levels implemented and there is no need for this hardcoded MAX_CACHE_LEAVES limit. So remove the MAX_CACHE_LEAVES limit from the routine which calculates the number of cache levels using cpuid(4) Signed-off-by: Suresh Siddha Cc: Venkatesh Pallipadi Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds --- arch/i386/kernel/cpu/intel_cacheinfo.c | 18 ++++++------------ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-) (limited to 'arch/i386/kernel/cpu/intel_cacheinfo.c') diff --git a/arch/i386/kernel/cpu/intel_cacheinfo.c b/arch/i386/kernel/cpu/intel_cacheinfo.c index 9e0d5f83cb9..c802206274c 100644 --- a/arch/i386/kernel/cpu/intel_cacheinfo.c +++ b/arch/i386/kernel/cpu/intel_cacheinfo.c @@ -117,7 +117,6 @@ struct _cpuid4_info { cpumask_t shared_cpu_map; }; -#define MAX_CACHE_LEAVES 4 static unsigned short num_cache_leaves; static int __devinit cpuid4_cache_lookup(int index, struct _cpuid4_info *this_leaf) @@ -144,20 +143,15 @@ static int __init find_num_cache_leaves(void) { unsigned int eax, ebx, ecx, edx; union _cpuid4_leaf_eax cache_eax; - int i; - int retval; + int i = -1; - retval = MAX_CACHE_LEAVES; - /* Do cpuid(4) loop to find out num_cache_leaves */ - for (i = 0; i < MAX_CACHE_LEAVES; i++) { + do { + ++i; + /* Do cpuid(4) loop to find out num_cache_leaves */ cpuid_count(4, i, &eax, &ebx, &ecx, &edx); cache_eax.full = eax; - if (cache_eax.split.type == CACHE_TYPE_NULL) { - retval = i; - break; - } - } - return retval; + } while (cache_eax.split.type != CACHE_TYPE_NULL); + return i; } unsigned int __devinit init_intel_cacheinfo(struct cpuinfo_x86 *c) -- cgit v1.2.3-70-g09d2
