From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Dave.Martin@arm.com (Dave Martin) Date: Thu, 25 May 2017 19:25:00 +0100 Subject: [RFC PATCH v3 3/4] arm64: neon: Remove support for nested or hardirq kernel-mode NEON In-Reply-To: <1495736721-20985-1-git-send-email-Dave.Martin@arm.com> References: <1495736721-20985-1-git-send-email-Dave.Martin@arm.com> Message-ID: <1495736721-20985-4-git-send-email-Dave.Martin@arm.com> To: linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org List-Id: linux-arm-kernel.lists.infradead.org Support for kernel-mode NEON to be nested and/or used in hardirq context adds significant complexity, and the benefits may be marginal. In practice, kernel-mode NEON is not used in hardirq context, and is rarely used in softirq context (by certain mac80211 drivers). This patch implements an arm64 may_use_simd() function to allow clients to check whether kernel-mode NEON is usable in the current context, and simplifies kernel_neon_{begin,end}() to handle only saving of the task FPSIMD state (if any). Without nesting, there is no other state to save. The partial fpsimd save/restore functions become redundant as a result of these changes, so they are removed too. The save/restore model is changed to operate directly on task_struct without additional percpu storage. This simplifies the code and saves a bit of memory, but means that softirqs must now be disabled when manipulating the task fpsimd state from task context: correspondingly, preempt_{en,dis}sable() calls are upgraded to local_bh_{en,dis}able() as appropriate. fpsimd_thread_switch() already runs with hardirqs disabled and so is already protected from softirqs. These changes should make it easier to support kernel-mode NEON in the presence of the Scalable Vector extension in the future.
