Newer hardware has uncovered a bug in the software implementation of using MWAITX for the delay function. A value of 0 for the timer is meant to indicate that a timeout will not be used to exit MWAITX. On newer hardware this can result in MWAITX never returning, resulting in NMI soft lockup messages being printed. On older hardware, some of the other conditions under which MWAITX can exit masked this issue. The AMD APM does not currently document this and will be updated. Please refer to http://marc.info/?l=kvm&m=148950623231140 for information regarding NMI soft lockup messages on an AMD Ryzen 1800X. This has been root-caused as a 0 passed to MWAITX causing it to wait indefinitely. This change has the added benefit of avoiding the unnecessary setup of MONITORX/MWAITX when the delay value is zero.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
