Subject: [PATCH v3 4/4] powerpc: Remove facility loadups on transactional {fp, vec, vsx} unavailable
Date: Thu, 2 Nov 2017 14:09:06 +1100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171102030906.3061-4-cyrilbur@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20171102030906.3061-1-cyrilbur@gmail.com>
After handling a transactional FP, Altivec or VSX unavailable exception.
The return to userspace code will detect that the TIF_RESTORE_TM bit is
set and call restore_tm_state(). restore_tm_state() will call
restore_math() to ensure that the correct facilities are loaded.
This means that all the loadup code in {fp,altivec,vsx}_unavailable_tm()
is doing pointless work and can simply be removed.
