[PATCH 4/4] target/i386: Update CMPLegacy handling for Zhaoxin and VIA CPUs
Posted by EwanHai 1 year, 7 months ago 
Zhaoxin and VIA CPUs handle the CMPLegacy bit in the same way
as Intel CPUs. This patch simplifies the existing logic by
using the IS_XXX_CPU macro and includes checks for Zhaoxin
and VIA vendors to align their behavior with Intel.

it seems you added ! by mistake.

For CPUID leaf 0x80000001 ECX bit 1, Intel defines it as "Bits 04-01: 
Reserved,"
whereas AMD defines it as "CmpLegacy, Core multi-processing legacy 
mode." For Intel
CPUs and those following Intel's behavior, this bit should not be set to 
1. Therefore,
I believe the "!" here is correct.

Sorry, I misread the original code.

I think maybe we can just use is_AMD_CPU(). But I'm not sure if any 
magic use case with customized VENDOR ID relies on it. So you code looks 
good to me.

Ok, thanks. Additionally, in this patch series, I used some VIA terms, which
might cause confusion. I will remove all VIA references in the description
of the next version of the patch.
Currently, the “Centaurhauls” Vendor ID belongs to Zhaoxin CPUs.
