[PATCH] ARM: vfp: Always save VFP state in vfp_pm_suspend

[Colin Cross]

vfp_pm_suspend should save the VFP state any time there is
a last_VFP_context.  If it only saves when the VFP is enabled,
the state can get lost when, on a UP system:
   Thread 1 uses the VFP
   Context switch occurs to thread 2, VFP is disabled but the
      VFP context is not saved to allow lazy save and restore
   Thread 2 initiates suspend
   vfp_pm_suspend is called with the VFP disabled, but the
      context has not been saved.

Modify vfp_pm_suspend to save the VFP context whenever
last_VFP_context is set.

At this point is it guaranteed that the thread won't migrate to another
CPU? If not, we should use get/put_cpu.

We may want to set the last_VFP_context to NULL so that after resuming
(to the same thread) we force the VFP reload from the vfpstate
structure. The vfp_support_entry code ignores the reloading if the
last_VFP_context is the same as vfpstate.

Yes, VFP suspend is implemented with a sysdev, which is suspended
after disable_nonboot_cpus.

[PATCH v2] ARM: vfp: Always save VFP state in vfp_pm_suspend

[Colin Cross]

vfp_pm_suspend should save the VFP state any time there is
a last_VFP_context.  If it only saves when the VFP is enabled,
the state can get lost when, on a UP system:
   Thread 1 uses the VFP
   Context switch occurs to thread 2, VFP is disabled but the
      VFP context is not saved to allow lazy save and restore
   Thread 2 initiates suspend
   vfp_pm_suspend is called with the VFP disabled, but the
      context has not been saved.

Modify vfp_pm_suspend to save the VFP context whenever
last_VFP_context is set.

I'm not entirely happy with this.

It is true that last_VFP_context[] when non-NULL indicates who owns the
hardware VFP state, so saving it would seem logical.  However, this new
code now saves the state with the saved fpexc indicating that it's disabled.

This will cause a VFP exception to misbehave by reloading the state, and
then disabling the VFP unit.  That will cause another VFP exception which
will find the VFP unit disabled, and re-enable it.  All in all, this is
rather wasteful.

So...
	/* If lazy disable, re-enable the VFP ready for it to be saved */
	if (last_VFP_context[ti->cpu] != &ti->vfpstate) {
		fpexc |= FPEXC_EN;
		fmxr(FPEXC, fpexc);
	}
	/* If VFP is on, then save state for resumption */
	if (fpexc & FPEXC_EN) {
		...

I think v2 of the patch handles this case correctly:
	/* save state for resume */
	if (last_VFP_context[ti->cpu]) {
		printk(KERN_DEBUG "%s: saving vfp state\n", __func__);
		fmxr(FPEXC, fpexc | FPEXC_EN);
		vfp_save_state(last_VFP_context[ti->cpu], fpexc);
		last_VFP_context[ti->cpu] = NULL;
		fmxr(FPEXC, fpexc & ~FPEXC_EN);
	}

This version enables the VFP if it was not enabled, but saves the
original fpexc value.

I think v2 of the patch handles this case correctly:
	/* save state for resume */
	if (last_VFP_context[ti->cpu]) {
		printk(KERN_DEBUG "%s: saving vfp state\n", __func__);
		fmxr(FPEXC, fpexc | FPEXC_EN);
		vfp_save_state(last_VFP_context[ti->cpu], fpexc);
		last_VFP_context[ti->cpu] = NULL;
		fmxr(FPEXC, fpexc & ~FPEXC_EN);
	}

This version enables the VFP if it was not enabled, but saves the
original fpexc value.
