[edk2-devel] [Patch V6 4/4] UefiCpuPkg:Wake up APs after power-up or RESET through SIPI.

["Yuanhao Xie" <yuanhao.xie@intel.com>]

The implementation of this new behavior aligns with the guidelines
outlined in the Intel SDM.

Following a power-up or RESET of an MP system, system hardware
dynamically selects one of the processors on the system bus as the BSP.
The remaining processors are designated as APs. The APs complete a
minimal self-configuration, then wait for a startup signal (a SIPI
message) from the BSP processor.

Additionally, the MP protocol is executed only after
a power-up or RESET. If the MP protocol has completed and a
BSP is chosen, subsequent INITs (either to a specific processor or
system wide) do not cause the MP protocol to be repeated. Instead, each
logical processor examines its BSP flag (in the IA32_APIC_BASE MSR) to
determine whether it should execute the BIOS boot-strap code (if it is
the BSP) or enter a wait-for-SIPI state (if it is an AP).
