Subject: Re: [PATCH] UefiCpuPkg/MpInitLib: fix wrong base address set as Stack Guard
Date: Thu, 4 Jan 2018 01:45:17 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <D827630B58408649ACB04F44C510003624CC9A0A@SHSMSX103.ccr.corp.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <D827630B58408649ACB04F44C510003624CC99A7@SHSMSX103.ccr.corp.intel.com>

A correction: although BSP doesn't need it, we still need to initialize its ApTopOfStack
correctly because the MP service supports BSP/AP exchange. So I think the line 1501
should be changed to

  InitializeApData (CpuMpData, 0, 0, CpuMpData->Buffer + CpuMpData->CpuApStackSize);

instead of

  InitializeApData (CpuMpData, 0, 0, NULL);

Regards,
Jian
