The APIC ID as parsed from ACPI MADT is validity checked with the apic->apic_id_valid() callback, which depends on the selected APIC type. For non X2APIC types APIC IDs >= 0xFF are invalid, but values > 0x7FFFFFFF are detected as valid. This happens because the 'apicid' argument of the apic_id_valid() callback is type 'int'. So the resulting comparison apicid < 0xFF evaluates to true for all unsigned int values > 0x7FFFFFFF which are handed to default_apic_id_valid(). As a consequence, invalid APIC IDs in !X2APIC mode are considered valid and accounted as possible CPUs. Change the apicid argument type of the apic_id_valid() callback to u32 so the evaluation is unsigned and returns the correct result.

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.
