[edk2-devel] [PATCH] UefiCpuPkg/PiSmmCpu: Enable 5L paging only when phy addr line > 48

Ni, Ray ray.ni at intel.com
Thu Sep 5 22:19:11 UTC 2019


Today's behavior is to enable 5l paging when CPU supports it
(CPUID[7,0].ECX.BIT[16] is set).

The patch changes the behavior to enable 5l paging when two
conditions are both met:
1. CPU supports it;
2. The max physical address bits is bigger than 48.

Because 4-level paging can support to address physical address up to
2^48 - 1, there is no need to enable 5-level paging with max
physical address bits <= 48.
