Subject: [PATCH 4.14 083/115] x86/fpu: Dont export __kernel_fpu_{begin,end}()
Date: Wed, 15 May 2019 12:56:03 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190515090705.368088327@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190515090659.123121100@linuxfoundation.org>
[ Upstream commit 12209993e98c5fa1855c467f22a24e3d5b8be205 ]
There is one user of __kernel_fpu_begin() and before invoking it,
it invokes preempt_disable(). So it could invoke kernel_fpu_begin()
right away. The 32bit version of arch_efi_call_virt_setup() and
arch_efi_call_virt_teardown() does this already.
The comment above *kernel_fpu*() claims that before invoking
__kernel_fpu_begin() preemption should be disabled and that KVM is a
good example of doing it. Well, KVM doesn't do that since commit
f775b13eedee2 ("x86,kvm: move qemu/guest FPU switching out to vcpu_run")
so it is not an example anymore.
With EFI gone as the last user of __kernel_fpu_{begin|end}(), both can
be made static and not exported anymore.
