From bd4ea9a02845b22a09b73ebb015ce134234d100b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Leah Rowe Date: Mon, 17 Apr 2023 16:03:27 +0100 Subject: gm45: re-add mitigations for no-microcode setup libreboot will still include microcode updates by default, but mitigations against broken speedstep and reboot (when microcode updates are excluded) were removed following the merge with osboot this patch restores those mitigations; the patch reverts coreboot to older smrr code (which works fine, it isn't critical to use the new behaviour) and disables peci (pointless feature) i'll probably re-tool this later to apply the changes conditionally to whether ucode is present this is not a change in policy. policy says: include cpu microcode updates by default policy also says: libreboot must be configurable microcode removal via cbfstool remove -n, counts as configuration, and in practise is not possible on gm45 patches in current libreboot; this patch corrects that problem, allowing the machines to work somewhat well (same stability issues as before, like MCE errors resulting in kernel panic on high CPU/memory usage, but i digress) happy... hacking --- ...ep-on-x200-t400-Revert-cpu-intel-model_10.patch | 47 ++++++ ...5-type-CPUs-don-t-enable-alternative-SMRR.patch | 173 +++++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 220 insertions(+) create mode 100644 resources/coreboot/default/patches/0019-fix-speedstep-on-x200-t400-Revert-cpu-intel-model_10.patch create mode 100644 resources/coreboot/default/patches/0020-GM45-type-CPUs-don-t-enable-alternative-SMRR.patch diff --git a/resources/coreboot/default/patches/0019-fix-speedstep-on-x200-t400-Revert-cpu-intel-model_10.patch b/resources/coreboot/default/patches/0019-fix-speedstep-on-x200-t400-Revert-cpu-intel-model_10.patch new file mode 100644 index 00000000..3b1bd40d --- /dev/null +++ b/resources/coreboot/default/patches/0019-fix-speedstep-on-x200-t400-Revert-cpu-intel-model_10.patch @@ -0,0 +1,47 @@ +From 3cf315fd59f1388d60cce9290eb52bccb7b29625 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 +From: Leah Rowe +Date: Wed, 1 Dec 2021 02:53:00 +0000 +Subject: [PATCH 1/2] fix speedstep on x200/t400: Revert + "cpu/intel/model_1067x: enable PECI" + +This reverts commit 70fea013c7ebd6d85a7806748233fcfd76802f5f. + +Enabling PECI without microcode updates loaded causes the CPUID feature set +to become corrupted.
