From 47b1e20b206944ea097b775e0e4a569f8bdeeb7c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jiang Liu Date: Fri, 27 Sep 2013 09:04:41 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] arm64: fix possible invalid FPSIMD initialization state commit 6db83cea1c975b9a102e17def7d2795814e1ae2b upstream. If context switching happens during executing fpsimd_flush_thread(), stale value in FPSIMD registers will be saved into current thread's fpsimd_state by fpsimd_thread_switch(). That may cause invalid initialization state for the new process, so disable preemption when executing fpsimd_flush_thread().
