Subject: [PATCH v5 24/32] x86/entry: Get rid of pt_regs_to_thread_info()
Date: Mon, 11 Jul 2016 13:53:57 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <0beec068e1d2a4a510087332f4442d8c3c23b85e.1468270393.git.luto@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1468270393.git.luto@kernel.org>
In-Reply-To: <cover.1468270393.git.luto@kernel.org>
From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
It was a nice optimization while it lasted, but thread_info is moving
and this optimization will no longer work.
Quoting Linus:
Oh Gods, Andy. That pt_regs_to_thread_info() thing made me want
to do unspeakable acts on a poor innocent wax figure that looked
_exactly_ like you.
