+Subject: [PATCH] OvmfPkg/CpuHotplugSmm: delay SMM exit
+
+RH-Author: Gerd Hoffmann <None>
+RH-MergeRequest: 75: OvmfPkg/CpuHotplugSmm: delay SMM exit
+RH-Jira: RHEL-56154
+RH-Acked-by: Oliver Steffen <osteffen@redhat.com>
+RH-Commit: [1/1] 591189c9b119804cab4c48e9c27e428751993169 (kraxel.rh/centos-src-edk2)
+
+Let APs wait until the BSP has completed the register updates to remove
+the CPU.  This makes sure all APs stay in SMM mode until the CPU
+hot-unplug operation is complete, which in turn makes sure the ACPI lock
+is released only after the CPU hot-unplug operation is complete.
+
+Some background:  The CPU hotplug SMI is triggered from an ACPI function
+which is protected by an ACPI lock.  The ACPI function is in the ACPI
+tables generated by qemu.
