Subject: [PATCH 3/3] x86, FPU: Do not use static_cpu_has before alternatives
Date: Mon, 29 Apr 2013 16:04:22 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1367244262-29511-4-git-send-email-bp@alien8.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1367244262-29511-1-git-send-email-bp@alien8.de>
From: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de>
The call stack below shows how this happens: basically eager_fpu_init()
calls __thread_fpu_begin(current) which then does if (!use_eager_fpu()),
which, in turn, uses static_cpu_has.
And we're executing before alternatives so static_cpu_has doesn't work
there yet.
However, I don't want to cause the penalty of not using static_cpu_has
to all callers of use_eager_fpu() which are a bunch spread around the
tree so let's add the change only to __thread_fpu_begin() - it is still
on the context switch path but we can at least keep the static_cpu_has
call in the rest of the use_eager_fpu() callsites.
