Macro Definition Documentation

◆ MPAPI_INLINE

#define MPAPI_INLINE	(	_subsys,
		_api_func
	)	SINGLE_API_INLINE ( MPAPI_PREFIX_ ## _subsys, _api_func )

Calculate static inline multiprocessor API function name.

Parameters

_prefix	Subsystem prefix
_api_func	API function

Return values

_subsys_func Subsystem API function

Definition at line 81 of file mp.h.

◆ PROVIDE_MPAPI

#define PROVIDE_MPAPI	(	_subsys,
		_api_func,
		_func
	)	PROVIDE_SINGLE_API ( MPAPI_PREFIX_ ## _subsys, _api_func, _func )

Provide a multiprocessor API implementation.

Parameters

_prefix	Subsystem prefix
_api_func	API function
_func	Implementing function

Definition at line 91 of file mp.h.

◆ PROVIDE_MPAPI_INLINE

#define PROVIDE_MPAPI_INLINE	(	_subsys,
		_api_func
	)	PROVIDE_SINGLE_API_INLINE ( MPAPI_PREFIX_ ## _subsys, _api_func )

Provide a static inline multiprocessor API implementation.

Parameters

_prefix	Subsystem prefix
_api_func	API function

Definition at line 100 of file mp.h.

Typedef Documentation

◆ mp_addr_t

typedef unsigned long mp_addr_t

An address within the address space for a multiprocessor function.

Application processors may be started in a different address space from the normal iPXE runtime environment. For example: under legacy BIOS the application processors will use flat 32-bit physical addressing (with no paging or virtual address offset).

Definition at line 24 of file mp.h.

◆ mp_func_t

typedef void() mp_func_t(mp_addr_t opaque, unsigned int cpuid)

A multiprocessor function.

Parameters

opaque	Opaque data pointer
cpuid	CPU identifier

iPXE does not set up a normal multiprocessor environment. In particular, there is no support for dispatching code to individual processors and there is no per-CPU stack allocation.

Multiprocessor code must be prepared to run wth no stack space (and with a zero stack pointer). Functions may use the CPU identifier to construct a pointer to per-CPU result storage.

Multiprocessor functions are permitted to overwrite all registers apart from the stack pointer. On exit, the function should check the stack pointer value: if zero then the function should halt the CPU, if non-zero then the function should return in the normal way.

Multiprocessor functions do not have access to any capabilities typically provided by the firmware: they cannot, for example, write any console output.

All parameters are passed in registers, since there may be no stack available. These functions cannot be called directly from C code.

◆ FILE_LICENCE()

FILE_LICENCE ( GPL2_OR_LATER_OR_UBDL )

◆ mp_call()

void __asmcall mp_call	(	mp_addr_t	func,
		mp_addr_t	opaque
	)

Call a multiprocessor function from C code on the current CPU.

Parameters

func	Multiprocessor function
opaque	Opaque data pointer

This function must be provided for each CPU architecture to bridge the normal C ABI to the iPXE multiprocessor function ABI. It must therefore preserve any necessary registers, determine the CPU identifier, call the multiprocessor function (which may destroy any registers other than the stack pointer), restore registers, and return to the C caller.

This function must be called from within the multiprocessor address space (e.g. with flat 32-bit physical addressing for BIOS). It can be called directly from C code if the multiprocessor address space is identical to the address space used for C code (e.g. under EFI, where everything uses flat physical addresses).

◆ mp_address()

mp_addr_t mp_address ( void * address )

Calculate address as seen by a multiprocessor function.

Parameters

address Address in normal iPXE address space

Return values

address Address in application processor address space

Definition at line 25 of file efi_mp.h.

 }

◆ mp_exec_boot()

void mp_exec_boot	(	mp_func_t	func,
		void *	opaque
	)

Execute a multiprocessor function on the boot processor.

Parameters

func	Multiprocessor function
opaque	Opaque data pointer

This is a blocking operation: the call will return only when the multiprocessor function exits.

Referenced by mp_boot_cpuid(), and ucode_update_all().

◆ mp_start_all()

void mp_start_all	(	mp_func_t	func,
		void *	opaque
	)

Start a multiprocessor function on all application processors.

Parameters

func	Multiprocessor function
opaque	Opaque data pointer

This is a non-blocking operation: it is the caller's responsibility to provide a way to determine when the multiprocessor function has finished executing and halted its CPU.

Referenced by mp_max_cpuid(), and ucode_update_all().

◆ mp_boot_cpuid()

unsigned int mp_boot_cpuid ( void )

Get boot CPU identifier.

Return values

id	Boot CPU identifier

Definition at line 43 of file mp.c.

         unsigned int max = 0;

◆ mp_max_cpuid()

unsigned int mp_max_cpuid ( void )

Get maximum CPU identifier.

Return values

max	Maximum CPU identifier

Definition at line 58 of file mp.c.

                                    {
         unsigned int max = mp_boot_cpuid();
