I just noticed that this cpu claims to not support x2apic.
For example no x2apic in /proc/cpuinfo, also ‘cpuid’ program claims that x2apic is disabled in cpu’s CPUID.
Anybody else have seen it? What about other TRX40 boards?
Fsck yea - I just patched the kernel to pretend that CPUID supports it and X2APIC works, and even IOMMU seems to support it 
[mlevitsk@starship ~]$dmesg | grep X2APIC
[ 2.384643] PPR X2APIC NX GT IA GA PC GA_vAPIC
[ 2.384646] PPR X2APIC NX GT IA GA PC GA_vAPIC
[ 2.384647] PPR X2APIC NX GT IA GA PC GA_vAPIC
[ 2.384649] PPR X2APIC NX GT IA GA PC GA_vAPIC
[ 2.384650] AMD-Vi: X2APIC enabled
Now I need to send patch upstream to add option to force X2APIC on instead of patching the kernel like that.
