Subject: [PATCH 06/22 v2] x86/fpu: Don't save fxregs for ia32 frames in
Date: Tue, 5 Feb 2019 17:43:43 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190205164343.6gdllvtgmw45mpdk@linutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190124111714.GA11554@zn.tnic>
In commit
72a671ced66db ("x86, fpu: Unify signal handling code paths for x86 and x86_64 kernels")
the 32bit and 64bit path of the signal delivery code were merged. The 32bit version:
|int save_i387_xstate_ia32(void __user *buf)
|…
| if (cpu_has_xsave)
| return save_i387_xsave(fp);
| if (cpu_has_fxsr)
| return save_i387_fxsave(fp);
The 64bit version:
|int save_i387_xstate(void __user *buf)
|…
| if (user_has_fpu()) {
| if (use_xsave())
| err = xsave_user(buf);
| else
| err = fxsave_user(buf);
|
| if (unlikely(err)) {
| __clear_user(buf, xstate_size);
| return err;
The merge:
|int save_xstate_sig(void __user *buf, void __user *buf_fx, int size)
|…
| if (user_has_fpu()) {
| /* Save the live register state to the user directly. */
| if (save_user_xstate(buf_fx))
| return -1;
| /* Update the thread's fxstate to save the fsave header. */
| if (ia32_fxstate)
| fpu_fxsave(&tsk->thread.fpu);
I don't think that we needed to save the FPU registers to ->thread.fpu because
the registers were stored in `buf_fx'. Today the state will be restored from
`buf_fx' after the signal was handled (I assume that this was also the case
with lazy-FPU). Since commit
66463db4fc560 ("x86, fpu: shift drop_init_fpu() from save_xstate_sig() to handle_signal()")
it is ensured that the signal handler starts with clear/fresh set of FPU
registers which means that the previous store is futile.
Remove copy_fxregs_to_kernel() because task's FPU state is cleared later in
handle_signal() via fpu__clear().

v1…v2:
- reworte description. Replaced the "I don't know why it is like it is
makes no sense buh" part with some pointer which might explain why
copy_fxregs_to_kernel() ended there and since when it definitely is a
nop.
- removed `fpu' since it unused after that change.
