Subject: [ 14/25] x86, fpu: correct the asm constraints for fxsave, unbreak mxcsr.daz
Date: Thu, 8 Aug 2013 18:41:50 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130809013652.257990969@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20130809013649.057678051@linuxfoundation.org>
3.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: "H.J. Lu" <hjl.tools@gmail.com>
commit eaa5a990191d204ba0f9d35dbe5505ec2cdd1460 upstream.
GCC will optimize mxcsr_feature_mask_init in arch/x86/kernel/i387.c:
memset(&fx_scratch, 0, sizeof(struct i387_fxsave_struct));
asm volatile("fxsave %0" : : "m" (fx_scratch));
mask = fx_scratch.mxcsr_mask;
if (mask == 0)
mask = 0x0000ffbf;
to
memset(&fx_scratch, 0, sizeof(struct i387_fxsave_struct));
asm volatile("fxsave %0" : : "m" (fx_scratch));
mask = 0x0000ffbf;
since asm statement doesn’t say it will update fx_scratch. As the
result, the DAZ bit will be cleared. This patch fixes it. This bug
dates back to at least kernel 2.6.12.
