[edk2-devel] [PATCH v9 07/10] OvmfPkg/SmmCpuFeaturesLib: call CPU hot-eject handler
Posted by Ankur Arora 3 years, 8 months ago
Call the CPU hot-eject handler if one is installed. The condition for
installation is (PcdCpuMaxLogicalProcessorNumber > 1), and there's
a hot-unplug request.

The handler is called from SmmCpuFeaturesRendezvousExit(), which is
in-turn called at the tail-end of SmiRendezvous() after the BSP has
signalled an SMI exit via the "AllCpusInSync" loop.

Notes:
    Addresses the following comments from v8:
    
    (1) Add a MemoryFence() before accessing mCpuHotEjctData->Handler
        (and comment to that effect.)
