[PATCH] [v2] peci: Remove dependency on x86 CPU variables
From: Dave Hansen
Date: Fri Feb 20 2026 - 12:52:43 EST
From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
tl;dr: The non-x86 PECI driver #includes an arch/x86 header. This is
ostensibly to avoid duplicating CPU model number constants, but the
result is complexity and duplicated *code* which is a far worse fate
than duplicated constants.
Remove the PECI dependency on arch/x86 by adding a list of supported
"target" CPU models in the driver.
This is only compile tested.
Long version:
== Background ==
The "PECI" driver runs on non-x86 hardware inside an x86 system. It
talks to the x86 CPU. The PECI hardware has different features based on
platform generations and uses the CPU model to control feature
detections.
Basically, instead of a PCI or USB device ID that a USB or PCI driver
would use, the PECI driver uses the CPU model (and family).
The arch/x86 code unsurprisingly has a list of CPU model numbers and the
PECI code currently reuses that list. But the arch/x86 list is
maintained in the "Display" format which is different than the binary
format that CPUID (and PECI hardware) uses.
== Problem ==
The end result is that the PECI code #includes the arch/x86 constants
header and then duplicates some code that transforms the CPUID to the
"Display" format. This is fragile because it's easy for us x86 folks to
break the PECI driver when assuming that arch/x86 is x86-only.
== Solution ==
Remove the arch/x86 dependency. Instead of duplicating the
CPUID=>Display functionality, just duplicate the constants.
Also rename the formerly "x86_vfm" variables. They are not in the VFM
format any longer. They are purely device IDs. Name them appropriately.
The result is a net code removal. The only downside is that the PECI
folks need to add a #define whenever there is a new CPU model. But, they
need to go add new CPU model to the driver explicitly *anyway*.
== Notes ==
One little wrinkle in this is that the CPU identifier that comes back
from the PECI hardware contains the CPU stepping just like
CPUID.01H:EAX. But the stepping is ignored by the PECI driver.
So, the PECI_INTEL_* identifiers are just defined with the stepping
shifted off the beginning. They could have been defined with a 0 there
and then have the stepping masked somewhere.
