Subject: [PATCH] x86/Kconfig: Limit NR_CPUS on 32-bit to a sane amount
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
CVE-2017-5754
The recent cpu_entry_area changes fail to compile on 32-bit when BIGSMP=y
and NR_CPUS=512, because the fixmap area becomes too big.
Limit the number of CPUs with BIGSMP to 64, which is already way to big for
32-bit, but it's at least a working limitation.
We performed a quick survey of 32-bit-only machines that might be affected
by this change negatively, but found none.
