From d116b53f873c2cba861a7a83f4693d65140989b6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Simon Glass Date: Sun, 6 Mar 2016 19:28:25 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] x86: Add comments to the SIPI vector The Intel SIPI (start-up inter-processor interrupt) vector is the entry point for each secondary CPU (also called an AP - applications processor). The assembler and C code are linked, so add comments to indicate this.
