freebsd kernel with SKQ
fef7ed3790
When handling a GPE ACPI interrupt object the EcSpaceHandler() function can be called which checks the EC_EVENT_SCI bit and then recurse on the EcGpeQueryHandler() function. If there are multiple GPE events pending the EC_EVENT_SCI bit will be set at the next call to EcSpaceHandler() causing it to recurse again via the EcGpeQueryHandler() function. This leads to a slow never ending recursion during boot which prevents proper system startup, because the EC_EVENT_SCI bit never gets cleared in this scenario. The behaviour is reproducible with the ALASKA AMI in combination with a newer Skylake based mainboard in the following way: Enter BIOS and adjust the clock one hour forward. Save and exit the BIOS. System fails to boot due to the above mentioned bug in EcGpeQueryHandler() which was observed recursing multiple times. This patch adds a simple recursion guard to the EcGpeQueryHandler() function and also also adds logic to detect if new GPE events occurred during the execution of EcGpeQueryHandler() and then loop on this function instead of recursing.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree. See build(7) and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. The `buildkernel` and `installkernel` targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process. See build(7), config(8), and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html for more information. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the `buildkernel` and `installkernel` targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory. GENERIC is the default configuration used in release builds. NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used.
