(1) On Linus's tree, with SME + 5-level page table + PCID based tlb flush patches (i.e. b1b6f83ac938d176742c85757960dec2cf10e468) and your v2 patchset applied: a) when 'nopcid' is specified in bootargs: - qemu: primary kernel boots fine. - Real efi test hardware (SGI UV 300 machine): primary boots _fails_ b) when 'nopcid' is _not_ specified in bootargs: - qemu: primary kernel boot _fails_. - Real efi test hardware (SGI UV 300 machine): primary boot _fails_. (2) On Matt's tree, with c4d2793e5a07d5e63d91715a4393fe47c8345112 as head and your v2 patchset applied: a) when 'nopcid' is specified in bootargs: - qemu: primary kernel boots fine. - Real efi test hardware (SGI UV 300 machine): primary boot _fails_ b) when 'nopcid' is _not_ specified in bootargs: - qemu: primary kernel boots fine. - Real efi test hardware (SGI UV 300 machine): primary boot _fails_ So, in summary it seems that the primary kernel boot _fails_ with your v2 patchset on the real hardware for me irrespective of whether I use Matt's tree or Linus's tree: a) I would suggest that you perform some more checks on real hardware as qemu boot tests sometimes do not expose the problems we might see when booting a kernel on efi capable hardware. b) Also do note that both Matt's tree and Linus's tree work fine on this hardware for me (with the 'nopcid' added to the bootargs) Please let me know if I can help further in debugging the same.
