It anyway already could not be applied automatically to the source tree but this clean version of the patch will help to apply in manually to somebody who understand apic internals and could do it ...
the patch release notes by Zwane:
o Define symbols for constants like
o APIC arbitration
o Processor priority
o Various interrupt delivery fixes
o Focus processor checking
o ExtINT delivery
I need to release this now so that i don't fall too far behind CVS, when
it was part of the bochs-smp patch it could boot 2.4.18 4way. Apologies
for the whitespace changes.
Also remove patch.apic-ppr-zwane patch because it already included in
patch.apic-zwane.
I hope it will help to boot x86-64 or cmp systems required missed APIC
features !
fixes a bug in exception handling in v8086 mode
Here are comments from the author:
Since the bug of bochs-2.0.win32 was found and
corrected, it reports. cpu/exception.cpp of src : Within
an interrupt() function, when present is the V8086 mode,
a bug is in the portion which processes 386 (286)
int/trap gate. From the V8086 mode, this portion is
performed, when it is going to execute an int imm
command. The portion in which push_32 () is called in
the state of VM=1 is still a mistake. Although this
push_32 () tends to write in to the stack of a protected
mode, if it is still VM=1 of EFLAGS, the
write_virtual_dword() function called out of push_32 () will
take out a segment protection exception. After
performing clear_VM() etc., it is necessary to make it
call push_32 () correctly, since EFLAGS is saved locally.
Syntax error fixes:
[x] fixed error with array bounds in virt_timer.cc
[x] fixed error with returning value from void functions
[x] fixed const class member initialization (according C++ standard)
[x] for-loop local variable declaration moved out of loop
(for VC 6.0 compliance)
Removed already committed patch from Dirk Thierbach
Replaced the patch from Vitaly Vorobyov by set of splitted patches.
Now any of his patches could be committed separatelly from others !
