Subject: [PATCH v4 4/8] powerpc: Introduce syscall exit arch functions
Date: Fri, 23 Jan 2026 13:09:12 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260123073916.956498-5-mkchauras@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260123073916.956498-1-mkchauras@linux.ibm.com>
From: Mukesh Kumar Chaurasiya <mchauras@linux.ibm.com>
Add PowerPC-specific implementations of the generic syscall exit hooks
used by the generic entry/exit framework:
- arch_exit_to_user_mode_work_prepare()
- arch_exit_to_user_mode_work()
These helpers handle user state restoration when returning from the
kernel to userspace, including FPU/VMX/VSX state, transactional memory,
KUAP restore, and per-CPU accounting.
Additionally, move check_return_regs_valid() from interrupt.c to
interrupt.h so it can be shared by the new entry/exit logic.
No functional change is intended with this patch.
