Description

In 9747 we added support for Intel's PPIN feature to facilitate the use of CPU auto-replace. AMD added support for that. This generalizes the previous implementation to add support for AMD.

To test this, I ran this on and AMD system with a Rome chip and found that PPIN works and I had a serial number on the processor node in topo.

To test this, we booted this in three different situations:

  • With an AMD EPYC Rome CPU that has access to ppin.
  • With an Intel Ivy Bridge (thanks Patrick!) Xeon that verified the PPIN support still worked on Intel.
  • With a VM that didn't expose PPIN to verify that systems without it still worked just fine.

Here's an example of the output from an AMD system:
