Subject: [patch 2/2] x86, fpu: lazy allocation of FPU area - v4
Date: Tue, 04 Mar 2008 15:37:43 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080304234003.752305000@linux-os.sc.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20080304234003.603501000@linux-os.sc.intel.com
[-- Attachment #1: x86-lazy-fp-allocation.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 8444 bytes --]
Only allocate the FPU area when the application actually uses FPU, i.e., in the
first lazy FPU trap. This could save memory for non-fpu using apps.
Signed-off-by: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com>

v4: Handles the kmem_cache_alloc() failures.
v3: Fixed the non-atomic calling sequence in atomic context.
v2: Ported to x86.git#testing with some name changes.
