On AMD CPUs that support INVLPGB, broadcast TLB flushing remains\nenabled.\n\nThere are two checks that decide whether the global ASID code runs,\nmm_global_asid() and consider_global_asid(), that key off of the\nX86_FEATURE_INVLPGB feature. Once an mm becomes active on more than three\nCPUs, consider_global_asid() assigns it a global ASID, after which\nflush_tlb_mm_range() takes the broadcast_tlb_flush() path using a non-zero\nPCID. Issuing an INVLPGB with a non-zero PCID while CR4.PCIDE is not set\nresults in a #GP:\n\n  Oops: general protection fault, kernel NULL pointer dereference 0x1: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI\n  CPU: 158 UID: 0 PID: 3119 Comm: snap Not tainted 7.1.0-rc3 #1 PREEMPT(full)\n  Hardware name: ...\n  RIP: 0010:broadcast_tlb_flush\n  Code: ... 89 da 48 83 c8 07 <0f> 01 fe eb 08 cc cc cc ...\n  Call Trace:\n   <TASK>\n   flush_tlb_mm_range\n   ptep_clear_flush\n   wp_page_copy\n   ? _raw_spin_unlock\n   __handle_mm_fault\n   handle_mm_fault\n   do_user_addr_fault\n   exc_page_fault\n   asm_exc_page_fault\n\nAll processors that support broadcast TLB invalidation also have PCID support,\nso it is only the \"nopcid\" scenario that is of concern.
