From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Thu, 15 Jan 2015 19:20:05 +0000 (+0100) Subject: x86, fpu: Don't abuse has_fpu in __kernel_fpu_begin/end() X-Git-Tag: firefly_0821_release~176^2~2394^2~1 X-Git-Url: http://demsky.eecs.uci.edu/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=33a3ebdc077f;p=firefly-linux-kernel-4.4.55.git x86, fpu: Don't abuse has_fpu in __kernel_fpu_begin/end() Now that we have in_kernel_fpu we can remove __thread_clear_has_fpu() in __kernel_fpu_begin(). And this allows to replace the asymmetrical and nontrivial use_eager_fpu + tsk_used_math check in kernel_fpu_end() with the same __thread_has_fpu() check. The logic becomes really simple; if _begin() does save() then _end() needs restore(), this is controlled by __thread_has_fpu(). Otherwise they do clts/stts unless use_eager_fpu(). Not only this makes begin/end symmetrical and imo more understandable, potentially this allows to change irq_fpu_usable() to avoid all other checks except "in_kernel_fpu". Also, with this patch __kernel_fpu_end() does restore_fpu_checking() and WARNs if it fails instead of math_state_restore(). I think this looks better because we no longer need __thread_fpu_begin(), and it would be better to report the failure in this case.
