[PATCH v4 0/5] x86/apic: Fix restoring boot irq mode in reboot and kexec/kdump

From: Baoquan He
Date: Tue Feb 13 2018 - 05:11:10 EST


This is v4 post. Only patch 0002 is updated.

A regression bug was introduced in below commit.
commit 522e66464467 ("x86/apic: Disable I/O APIC before shutdown of the local APIC")

It caused the action to fail which we try to restore boot irq mode
in reboot and kexec/kdump. Details can be seen in patch 0002.

Warning can always be seen during kdump kernel boot on qemu/kvm
platform. Our customer even saw casual kdump kernel hang once in
~30 attempts during stress testing of kdump on KVM machine.

v3->v4:
Eric pointed out that in patch 0002 the change related to
KEXEC_JUMP is not right.
Correct it.

Add Fixes tag and Cc to stable.

v2->v3:
Change as Eric suggested:

Rerrange patches and change code and messy function/variable naming.
Change patch subject and log to make it more understandable.
