Subject: [PATCH v2] arm64: Preserve the user r/w register tpidr_el0 on context switch and fork in compat mode
Date: Wed, 20 May 2015 18:18:29 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <555CB3D5.7000307@dawncrow.de> (raw)
From: Andr? Hentschel <nerv@dawncrow.de>
Since commit a4780adeefd042482f624f5e0d577bf9cdcbb760 the user writeable TLS
register on ARM is preserved per thread.
This patch does it analogous to the ARM patch, but for compat mode on ARM64.

This patch is against Linux 4.1-rc1 (b787f68c36d49bb1d9236f403813641efa74a031)
v2: Trying to address suggestions by Will Deacon
@Will Deacon: The macro you suggested is not helpful it seems, instead i introduced
static functions. They also could be macros i guess, but it seems
much cleaner to me to use functions as it only affects one file.
Should the final version be send to rmk's patchtracker or will someone else pick it up?
